color:blue'>Ah! I had forgotten about the Southwell Diocese, probably because
many of the lesser numbered rings are augmented when restored. I know a few
people are against augmentation, but at the end of the day, there is more
chance of bells being rung regularly - and of retaining a band - if there
are 5 or 6 bells rather than three. There are quite a few very ringable 3 bell
towers in the Oxford Diocese, but to my knowledge only one, Didcot, has a
regular band of ringers. That said, I think it is more likely that the bells
are heard more frequently at those towers where the bells are hung for
ringing, than those where lever chiming is the mode. There will be an
occasional visiting band and ringing can be provided by other towers for
weddings & special services.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

data on the number of rings of 5 and above in the Southwell Diocese in say
1970, compared with today. I doubt if many (if any) other Dioceses will have
seen such an increase.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
