Thanks Andy. The ring of 3 is definitely at Brockhampton by Bromyard 
and the grid ref was changed in Dove quite recently to reflect that 
fact. John Baldwin will have the correspondence. I emailed him with 
my concerns that the information given to him (in good faith) that 
the bells had gone was incorrect and he is ivestigating this with the 
Hereford DAC. However, some bells had been sold according to the 
originator of this thread so perhaps the DAC can shed some light on 
that.

With hindsight the 3&4 Bell Society should have paid a visit while in 
Herefordshire.
