A bit of lateral movement going on there, judging from the way the gap keeps opening and closing between the headstock and the bearing housing. No wonder they're hard work.
@GJChurchward You do realise it's doing that because of the influence of the tower? This isn't bad compared to how it got at some of the severe tower shakes (which I didn't record because the ringing at those points was bad).
Having actually seen the whole bell shunting from side to side by up to 2 inches, it explains why this bell in paticular is one of the worst in the tower.
