Bonsall unringable

During the AGM today, one of the bell consultants, Mike Banks, announced that the 3rd (cast in 1656) at Bonsall has cracked. This may have been caused by the ellacombe hammer (which was used whilst the bells were unringable for around 100 years) hitting this bell. The bell is off to Soundweld, then Taylors Eayre and Smith and should be back this summer.
