Bells

Bell tower

There is a steel tower containing one bell. It is 18.25” in diameter and weighs 1.1.13.

The bell is hung dead with a solenoid operated clapper. Interestingly, the bell was originally part of the carillon in the Bok Mountain Lake Sanctuary, Florida, USA.

It was exchanged for a Mears bell, dating from 1836, which had been acquired by St Paul’s in 1963. This previous bell weighed 2.1.22 and was 22.5” in diameter.
