[Bell Historians] Bell frame for sale (of no practical use)

[Alan Buswell]

Even giving bell frames to museums does not always work. In the spring of 1981 a 4-bell frame possibly mid 15th century, was given to the Weald Downland Open Air Museum in West Sussex. I gather it is still in store with no plans for it's display.

  Good point, and a place to put some of the old and useless bells
  cluttering up towers.

  Besides which, as magnificent as the joinery is in some frames, the
  structure totally loses context when bereft of its bells.
