I was wondering if anyone might know what exactly happened when the cathedral was taken over by a excommunicated bishop in 2008?, according to the obituary for teddy kabwemba (then tower captain)   the local band where holding their AGM when this occurred and apparently they where abruptly ordered out of the tower. Once they had left he apparently tried to retrive his coat (which was still in the ringing chamber) but was “beaten” when he tried to get back inside leaving him with serious heart complications, it would interesting to know why he  was specifically targeted and why ringing was banned for over 4 years. I was also wondering if there are any frame plans, inscriptions or tuning figures for these bells as I don’t think I have found them elsewhere.
Many thanks
Oliver lee
