@timmeh1507 Yes, theyre the same in my Doves (2000,) but no, they ARENT on the system any more. I think they were converted to a chime; I often wondered what happened to them. Yes, they WERE Unringable, cant say Im overly surprised judging by the size of the tower.
Any idea of founders/dates? Would be good to have rounds on 10 chimed; bet that would sound GOOOOOOOOOOD!!
According to my copy of Dove's Guide (1993) these are a 52 cwt ten, but unringable. Anyone know any more? they are no longer in the guide.
