York St Wilfrid - put in as an 8 in 1995, with the trebles added in the 
following year. They were always intended as a 10, but the trebles were 
not installed initially as there were concerns about whether the 
trebles of 8 would be powerful enough (they were formerly a chime). 
There was nothing at all in the tower before this.
