                    Professor James Runciman Denny composed ‘The Leeds Quarters’ 
                          for the chimes of Parkinson Tower. The Chimes were Inaugurated 
                          by Her Royal Highness The Chancellor of the University 
                          on the 14th May 1953 at 12 noon. The department is commemorating 
                          the 50th anniversary of the inauguration of Parkinson 
                          Chimes with events, campaigns and publications.
