LIVERPOOL Cathedral’s Great George bell will peal for an hour on Monday as part of a city-wide bells symphony to celebrate the 800th birthday.
It will take three people working in succession to toll the 15-ton bell, the deepest toned in the country, for the full 60 minutes – the longest continuous length of time it has ever been rung. more
I'm sure they were practicing yesterday, I could hear bell ringing.

The Echo is always good for crap information
It's a 14 ton bell, and the deepest toned bell in the UK is from the Queen Mother chime at York Minster.
I've 'rung' Great George many a time, you can ring it by yourself but you need a bit of muscle. Certainly ringing it for an hour will be interesting - it travels for miles and I think I'll be there with a camera to record a few minutes worth.
The trouble is, they're ringing at St Nick's Pier Head - which you can't hear from the centre of town, and SFX too, which won't reach town. The only bells that you will hear are the ones at the Municipal Buildings (Council offices) in Dale Street - and of course Great George!
Here's a clip of Great George in action:

(and after about 30 seconds after the end of the clip - the rope snapped!!!)
I know this street, I am thinking that is Gambier Terrace, when Lennon and Stu said to Paul, that they wanted to call the band The Beatles. Beauty photo! Thanks to share!
I think you are right Marie. I can even make out the old 'family-planning clinic.'
It's good that the two Cathedrals are joined together by a street calle 'Hope.'

Some interesting snaps here which I don't think have been seen here (well I did search anyway)

Now this is what I call a blast from the past. A rare view of the Falkner Estate on Upper Parliament Street as well as the buildings in front of the Cathedral and other houses off North Hill Street.
Great Stuff!
