Bells on Sunday comes from the Minster Church of St John the Baptist, Halifax in West Yorkshire. The present church was built in the fifteenth century with work on the fine tower taking over thirty years to complete. The current bells were installed in 1951 and are one of the last rings of bells to be cast by the Gillett and Johnston foundry of Croydon. They are a diatonic ring of twelve with a tenor bell weighing twenty eight hundredweight tuned to the key of D. We hear them ringing Grandsire Cinques.
