St John's, Brisbane
The bells of St John's Cathedral Brisbane were rung for the first
time tonight (Tuesday 1st June) in their new location in the central
tower. The bells have waited for around 100 years to finally make it
to their intended home.
First impressions, hot off the press, are extremely positive. The
sound is wonderful, and the challenges that were formerly well known
to ringers of St John's have almost all disappeared.
The ringing room is still under construction, but it is hoped that
things will be operational within one month, and fully completed
within three months. (From Emma Hadfield).
Question
This is the shortest distance a ring has been transferred? Discuss.
