Dunster Chimes

by Gordon Rendell

 

The chimes at Dunster, Somerset, play a different tune every day:

Sunday:- O Rest In The Lord:

Monday:- Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes:

Tuesday:- Home, Sweet Home:

Wednesday:- O Worship The King All Glorious Above:

Thursday:- The Bluebells of Scotland:

Friday:- The Old Hundredth:

Saturday:- Hark, Hark My Soul, Angelic Voices Swelling:

The tunes were chosen by the squire at the castle, George Luttrell, who paid for the installation in the 1870’s. The chimes play every four hours.
