After being away from it for too long, I have now resumed work on my
bell acoustics investigations. As part of this I am interested in old
peals of ten and twelve (pre 1850-ish) which were substantially all
provided as a set, where the trebles still survive and have not been
retuned.
For twelves, I have recorded Painswick and Mancroft. As regards other
twelves, I have some questions:
* were Ashton under Lyne retuned in 1927?
* were Oxford retuned in 1952?
Are there any other twelves I should consider? (I can't find any more
on Michael Wilby's list).
As regards tens, I know of St Luke's Chelsea. Have Leeds (Kent) been
tuned? (the only candidate I can find on Kent bells). Are there any
other lists I should look at? Does anyone know of other untuned old
tens?
Many thanks,
Bill H
