any co-ordinating body for them. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>I have just visited the above church where we have just
been commissioned to carry out a reordering project. This is a very
small, neglected late 1880s church in the Nottinghamshire
coalfield.<O></O></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>They have a small single tolling bell which was installed
in 1994 to replace a set of tubular bells that were fitted on the roof in 1902
to commemorate the coronation of Edward VII and paid for by public
subscription. These bells have been brought inside and are currently
stored on the church balcony – which is not easily accessible due to poor
structural condition of the balcony. <O></O></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I am particularly interested in whether there are any
specific groups who are interested in church tubular bells – the church
council would be looking for disposal but if there is a way that they can be
displayed we would be interested in talking to someone about how this could be
incorporated into the project. <O></O></P></SPAN></FONT></DIV>
