Exeter cathedral has heavy bells are theu 2nd heaviest in uk

[@srwilson3s2k14]

great deep sound to them gritty old style

[@Steven_Rowe]

I think they are the third heaviest 8n the world. Sherbourne, Adelaide the Westbury. Sherbourne are terrible, and whilst Adelaide are top bells as post war Taylor's this is a a prewar Taylor peal and that Tenor is gorgeous.

They are a lovely sounding ring, it’s about a 90 minute drive to go to Westbury but a privilege to ring there when I can get over to them

[@Steven_Rowe]

@@garethdown7394 I have in Aus for 50 years and 90 mins is really nothing. Another peal I like is Long Ashton in Summerset ,I think the tenor is 31 cwt .

They don’t seem like the 3rd heaviest but I’ll take your word for it!

[@garethdown7394]

whtministry.org.uk/?page_id=73 3rd heaviest peal of 8 in the world according to the church website, they go really well for their weight

[@bellminsterboy]

they are indeed the 3rd heaviest - a quick search on Dove will tell you that! Sherborne are the biggest (46cwt), followed by Adelaide (41cwt) and then Westbury (35cwt).
