Bells on Sunday comes from St Lawrence and Paul, Pudsey in West Yorkshire

Bells on Sunday comes from the Parish Church of Saint Lawrence and Saint Paul in Pudsey, West Yorkshire. Built to accommodate up to 2000 worshippers the church building was consecrated on the 30th of August 1824 and had eight new bells cast by Thomas Mears. In 1957 these bells were recast and rehung by the Mears and Stainbank foundry of Whitechapel, London with a tenor bell weighing seventeen hundredweight and tuned to the note of F. We hear them ringing Pudsey Surprise Major, a method first rung 100 years ago this year and being rung to commemorate the bicentenary of the church.
