 Hi Peter. I heard Alnwick Town Hall chime the hour. Ting-tang quarters with the hour struck on a third bell. I think they were the equivalent of 1, 3 and 5 of a (light!) six of about 2 or 3 cwt.

Did you have a look at the Old Town Hall at Alnwick?  The tower is quite substantial, a bit like the municipal one at Morpeth – see https://co-curate.ncl.ac.uk/town-hall-alnwick/  .  From what I remember it’s got a couple of small bells for the clock, but I’ve never been inside.

  

Peter

The G&J chime at Alnmouth is very pretty but the tower doesn't look particularly substantial. The clock chime at St. Paul's is particularly impressive!
