Some rounds and the first couple of changes of Kent TB Royal on the 1947 Taylor ten at Lichfield (31-2-9 in D). Very pleasant bells, perhaps a tiny bit overhyped but nice. They were presented to the Cathedral in 1947 by the local Freemasons.

  • sound good - what they like to ring?

  • @KDowner94 alright but not the easiest, the rope circle is odd because they are in the original frame which causes some ropesight problems.

  • My home tower when not at Uni. Since I'm writing this in late November, I haven't heard these for over 2 mouths and I'd forgot just how good they are!!!!

    To clear up some questions on this page.....There are no bells in the North (LH) tower, but I do know it's used as a music practice room, so there probably is a piano there. The central tower has a sanctus bell used when there's no ringing before a service. 6,7 and 8 have a draught of about 12 feet, the others are about twice that.

  • @lunaticonthegrass111 oh they are nice but I didn't much care for the rope circle and they aren't the easiest!

  • They want to build a Mosque right next to Lichfield Catherdal,

  • that is highly unlikely to happen, there's nowhere to put one for starters, and also the area around the cathedral would probably be a protected/conservation area.

    Let them build a mosque right next to the cathedral..and ring those bells 24/7!

  • @timmeh1507 Does this mean the 7 has a short draught?
