I was involved in taking the old steel bells out and putting the new ring of bells in.I have attached a table of the old steel bells specifications that was produced by Eayre and Smith. You will see they were cast at  four different dates and some of their diameters were the same. Ron Shepherd

Subject: [Bell Historians] Randwick, NSW    Thanks to Chris Pickford, George Dawson and David Cawley for info about the Colonel Tom article.  Now, my next question is a real long-shot. Does anyone have weights, diameters and dates for the old steel eight at Randwick? I fear that there would have been no incentive to take such details when they were removed . . . the weight of 19cwt for the tenor in Dove seems excessive for an F# bell.  Six of the Randwick bells are still ringing at the monastery of Holy Transfiguration at Bombala, New South Wales, as seen on Youtube, and between that and a Nick Bowden recording I was able to get a complete set of tuning figures. What a treat!  Regards,  Bill H   #yiv9224914047 -- #yiv9224914047ygrp-mkp {border:1px solid #d8d8d8;font-family:Arial;margin:10px 0;padding:0 10px;}#yiv9224914047 #yiv9224914047ygrp-mkp hr
