[Bell Historians] Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God and the Royal Martyrs, Gunnersbury

[Revd David Cawley]

Certainly a new one on me !

I can imagine that there will be a number of eager visitors to this zvon 
when the present difficulties are over.

Thanks for notifying us of these Bells.

  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?

  Above the railway cutting south of Gunnersbury Station. The cathedral 
was built in 1999 in the grounds of a house that had previously been 
used for worship. The Russian Orthodox Church Abroad is a separate body 
from the state approved Russian Orthodox Church  whose Cathedral is in 
Kensington. …

  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
