The church of St John the Baptist, Felixstowe

Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St John the Baptist, Felixstowe.

Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St John the Baptist, Felixstowe. Completed in 1914 the large red brick and bath stoned church features a 4-stage tower and octagonal spire. A single bell was installed in 1920 but in 2003 seven more bells were cast and installed by the John Taylor foundry of Loughborough. The Tenor weighs seven hundredweight and is tuned to the note of B-flat. We hear them ringing Grandsire Triples.
