Bells on Sunday, comes from the church of Blessed Virgin Mary in Woolpit, Suffolk. Much of the church was built in the 15th century and features a fine double hammer-beam roof. There was also a popular shrine to Our Lady of Woolpit, an object of pilgrimage that was visited twice by King Henry the Sixth, however this was removed during the reformation. There are six bells with the tenor bell weighing just over eight hundredweight and tuned to the note of A flat. We hear them ringing Plain Bob Minor.
