Bells - I bet there will be a noticable difference in the sound between
the river installation and the Garlickhythe one.<<
We were wondering about this at Old North, as we passed around the
RW with the artist's vision of the barge. It looks like the ringers
*and* the bells will literally be in a glass box - what on earth will it
sound like to the ringers? Any guesses?
