Yes, LBC is required for bell repairs that would normally require a faculty.
Yesterday, I visited a TCCT tower in Gloucestershire where the local
Conservation Officer and the area Conservation Officer for EH were present.
It was considered that the possible replacement of a late 18th/early 19th
century headstock would require LBC..

Yes, I am TCCT's in-house bell adviser and am usually involved in most
cases. together with the Trust's Conservation Manager and the appointed
architect.

Hope this answers the question(s).

Neil.
