interestingly the old 6th and 7th of the Lester & Pack 1754 ring of 8 at 
Berwick on Tweed had their crowns removed. When rung in 1972 these two bells had 
metal girdles for their crowns that were fixed to the shoulders of the 
bells. They just sounded like an "old style eight " and it was not apparent that 
anything was different about them. Howard E. J. Smith - Newcastle
