"Evidently, the convention adopted for recording notes of bells is that
those 
which correspond to the white notes of a piano keyboard shall be 
recorded "as is", while those which correspond to the black notes 
shall be recorded as the sharp of the next lower white note"

What about

http://www.cccbr.org.uk/dove/detail.php?searchString=wells&numPerPage=10&sea
rchAmount=%3D&searchMetric=cwt&sortBy=Place&sortDir=Asc&DoveID=WELLS+CUTH

all black notes listed as flat rather than sharp

I agree with Michael and Sam on this one. I see no point in inventing a
specific notation just for ringers. In the long run, this can only cause
confusion.
