Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Mary the Virgin in Bowdon near Altrincham, Greater Manchester. The long ridge of Bowdon Hill is crossed by the Roman road of Watling Street, linking Cheshire and Lancashire. There has been a church on this raised site, in the centre of Bowdon, since Saxon times. By the mid-19th century the church needed to be extensively rebuilt to house the rapidly expanding congregation. There are eight bells all of which cast by the John Taylor foundry of Loughborough in 1964. The Tenor weighs eighteen hundredweight and tuned to the note of E. We hear them ringing Stedman Triples.
