A National Bell Register
Available here are lists of bells in the forty-three dioceses of the Church of England. All churches containing 0 or more bells are included; as such the lists are intended to complement the Dove database, rather than compete with it.
The data has been collected from a wide range of sources, and inevitably will not be completely accurate. Corrections are welcome and can be sent to me using the email link (do not forget to alter it!) on the main page, and may I thank those who have already been so helpful in this respect.
There are currently 63,790 entries on the register (as at May 2011).
Note:
All the recent (2013) additions to the CBC's Lists of Bells of Historic Importance have now been included.
With the reorganisation of some Yorkshire Dioceses the Dioceses of Wakefield & Bradford will be absorbed into the new Diocese of West Yorkshire & the Dales. For the moment the Lists below will not reflect that change.
Substantially complete lists:
The list of church bells in Wales is also available, but is less complete than the English Registers.
This list covers all the Dioceses in the Principality:
Roman Catholic churches
A list has been prepared, by Geoff Pick of Cannock, of all RC churches in England and Wales.
Nonconformist chapels in England
Courtesy of Dr Len Smith an Index of chapel bells is available
Scotland
Lists are being prepared for all the Scottish churches.
Ireland
Further work by Geoff Pick of Cannock has produced a Lists for the Churches in Ireland.
