St Hilda's was demolished by a hurricane decades ago, so what, I wonder, was the subsequent history of this rather attractive little Bell? It didn't go to the other churches in the Team - St Saviour's had a 25-cwt 8 at the time of the hurricane and St Peter's had (and has) a 20-cwt single Bell hung for ringing. The third church in the former Team had a 5-cwt bell hung for swing chiming, so its isn't one of these.<div><p><br></p><p>DLC</p><br><p><br></p><blockquote style="margin: 0 auto; padding: 0 2em; border-left:2px solid #00ADE5; white-space: pre-wrap "><br><br>------ Original Message ------<br>From: "Neal Dodge via Bell-historians" <bell-historians@lists.ringingworld.co.uk><br>To: "Bell Historians Mailing List" <bell-historians@lists.ringingworld.co.uk><br>Cc: "Neal Dodge" <gtbartonbells@gmail.com><br>Sent: Thursday, 15 Dec, 2022 At 17:51<br>Subject: [Bell Historians] Bell for sale ex-St Hilda's Leicester<br><br><div dir="ltr"><div>A 1890 Taylor bell is up for sale on Tuesday, 21.5 inch diameter from the demolished church of St Hilda's Leicester. <br></div><div dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.gildings.co.uk/auction/lot/lot-645---cast-bronze-bell-taylor--co-loughborough-1890/?lot=85372" target="_blank">https://www.gildings.co.uk/auction/lot/lot-645---cast-bronze-bell-taylor--co-loughborough-1890/?lot=85372</a> <br><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Many Thanks <br>Neal Dodge<br></div></div></div></div></div> <hr>_______________________________________________<br>
