Taylors inspected, the 2nd of 3 had a chunk out of the lip & this was welded
by Barimars & returned to the tower. The three were badly out of tune &
Taylors provided a new bell to make a 'proper' three. The bells in the
tower in 1974 were:</SPAN></FONT></FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Matthew,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Filey was originally a three bell tower, three
old bells, with all three being by Samuel Smith of York. The treble became
cracked and a replacement bell was installed. At that time all four
were hung dead in the three bell frame. Bells treble and replacement
being in the treble pit . Hence the wheel which dates from the time when they
were rehung dead.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In 1981 the two smallest bells were taken out and
sent to the foundry. In return the light six were installed around the two old
bells 2 and 3 hung dead in their pits.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>a) the two old bells are
"listed"(1689,<WBR>1700)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>b) the frame is "listed"</FONT></DIV>
