Whilst installing the ring at The Black Bull in nearby Frosterley, we ran into the past curator of The Beamish Museum who told us that there was no plan to install the steel bells in the rebuilt church at Beamish. I seem to remember him telling us that the tower was about 8 feet square internally. Matthew

Ah yes; thanks for reminding me. It was in the new Dove that I read it.
