[Bell Historians] Moseley St Mary - Steel Bells

[Kevin Jones]

This is a shame because these are the only remaining 8 steel bells in the world hung for ringing that were 
cast by Vickers except for the eight steel bells at Lancaster, The Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Holy Trinity 
in Pennsylvania, U.S.A. that are Chimestand Chimed.
I hope these bells are preserved in a museum as the last ever eight steel bells hung for ringing.

The last opportunity to ring the steel bells at Moseley is on January 15th from 12:00 -14:00 prior to their removal the following day. There will be a £3 charge per person.

The bells will be replaced with a ring of 10 weighing 18 and a half hundredweight. Seven bells will be cast to G&J profiles to match 3 bells rescued from Greenock. All the work will be undertaken by Taylor's.
