[George Dawson]

Thought you would be used to hard work judging by some of the things I've
seen in the Perth area!

Hm! Is 'not as hard as they used to be' really acceptable from what is in
most respects supposed to be a new frame? I thought they were blooming
hard work when I rang there last year.

Have you rung there since the rehang - most people who have think they
are hard work notwithstanding the long draft.

The similar (in the sense of A-frames on timber base beams)
unsatisfactory 8 bell frame at Ashby de la Zouch was replaced a couple
of years ago by:

A ten bell frame utilizing the re-used castings sitting on steel beam
bottom sills, etc, lower in the tower.

It is quite satisfactory!
