[Bell Historians] Highest Ring of Bells Without a Lift

>> Yes, if Durham steps are 0.7mm less than the Queens Tower steps then the
order would reverse.

The Queen's Tower itself is 287 feet tall.  The bells are perhaps two thirds
of the way to the very top with the ringing room immediately below.  All a
bit imprecise and not very helpful.

The Queen's Tower is reputed to be the highest building in London which does
not have a lift but whether that is true or not is also open to debate.  (It
is a fact that there is no lift.)
