And how about the bell that has been hanging in a tree in the churchyard 
at.............  (better not say!) for the last 70 years and as far as I 
know is still there (I hope!)?

  I can think of one relatively remote church in the South-East of
  England where a bell, getting on for half a ton in weight, hangs from a
  single shackle under a little wooden shelter in the churchyard. Why
  this particular bell hasn't been stolen in past has always remained a
  mystery to me. All past attempts to persuade the church authorities
  to put the bell in a more secure position have met with failure!
