I was asked by Hugh Routh if I could make a video of Bullington bells, which he restored as a conservation project in 2011. The frame needed to be supported with steel grillage where the ends of the supporting timbers had rotted. The frame had been strengthened, and the bells have been re-hung on ball bearings, with the crown staples removed. The rotten parts of the wheels have been replaced, and the original unconventional stays have been replaced with more conventional typed curved ash stays. The bells are an absolute joy to ring, and handle really well despite the very large old style wheels.
