<P>I asked whilst at Taylors on Sunday and they are being rehung as they are so
in theory the larger 2 are for ringing. However Andrew Aspland tells me that
when he looked at them a while ago, it was not possible to ring the larger bells
as the pulleys were not located under the bells but were some way off to one
side so it may be difficult to get a proper handstroke. It will depend therefore
on whether the pulleys are being repositioned.<BR><BR>Also I gather the frame is
just horizontal beams.<BR><BR>David<BR><BR>--- In <A

<BR>> As other entries do state if chiming status is involved it does suggest
that they will remain ringable, perhaps!<BR>> <BR>>
