  Don't know of a list, but two to go on it are:
      Bedford St.Paul (10) - nine bells stored in the churchyard for most of the war
      Kempston, Beds (6)

    During the Second World War some rings were removed for 'safety'. I've never seen a list, so if you know of anywhere please let me know.
    Thanks
