Track 13 : The sound of bell ringing in the Ringing Chamber at St Mary-le-Bow church, first attempt at ringing in remembrance of the Titanic disaster. The Ancient Society of College Youths bell ringers lead by Steeple Keeper, Simon Meyer. Cheapside. 1:24

It is famously said that to be born within the sound of Bow bells was the sign of a true Cockney. Given that cockneys are associated mostly with the east end of London I decided to visit the St Mary-le-Bow church where the bow bells are rung to record the sound of the ringers at work.
