[Bell Historians] Fort William

[Bryan McCahey]

I suppose, given the nature of the installation and the perceived lack of appropriate space for a chiming apparatus at ground level,  electro-magnetic hammers operated from a remote keyboard would be an obvious solution. The clavier in the actual bell chamber could be retained.

Not that
they needed checking, but Chris’ details are correct. I can confirm that the
smaller bells are dated 1939.
