The last time there was any work on the bells was in 1911 when the bells were restored and augmented to 6. To lift and position the bells, a large beam was positioned between the tower walls, and removing it has been on the list of jobs to do for a while.
We supported it securely from underneath with a steel frame and cut it into small sections and carried them down the stairs.
It was a good job done - especially since it was more rotten than we originally thought.
