What are we to make of this youtube video? An unknown (never-rung) ring of 
four out in India? A substantial frame, headstocks, stays, clappers (no 
wheels?)
>>

Definitely steel bells, probably by Vickers Sons & Co of Sheffield.

I make the tenor 1014Hz (B+45) and a wild guess of around 5cwt.

I wonder if wheels were ever fitted?

I also wonder how many more rings like this there are in India, e.g. the 6
at Mussoorie?

Regards, Nick
