David Sloman has alerted me to this chime of 9 bells. They must be Russian in origin, looking at them. Does anyone have any further details of them, please?

In trying to find details of the bells I came across a newsletter from Cathedral of Dormition of the Mother of God in Knightsbridge. Start at page 6.

It shows the blessing of some new bells, I assume for this Cathedral, once All Saints Church. It has/had a single bells, 2-0-4, cast in 1849 by C & G Mears. Can anyone confirm details of these bells too?
Thanks
Mike
