<p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Spoken with the tower contact, basically the story is
as follows. Bigbury <br>
is near the sea ( Bigbury on sea) and when the bells were recently inspected <br>
there was significant corrosion to the frame and supporting beams , to the <br>
point where the Diocesan Bell Advisor suggested that the bells should not be <br>
rung until the frame was cleaned off so that an informed decision could be <br>
made as to the effective strength of both, there are also a few other issues <br>
such as rotten floors, asbestos in there tower etc which need to be sorted <br>
out. There are also some tower and spire issues.<br>
<br>
The PCC approached the Dioceses for advice and were basically told that if <br>
any thing went wrong the Team vicar , churchwardens and all could be <br>
personally liable hence whilst the bells are now shown as U/R<br>
<br>
On a positive note I understand that there are moves afoot to get things <br>
sorted<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
<br>
Robert<br>
