An iconic fixture on Manchester University s campus will be removed next month for restoration so it can sound again for its 100th anniversary next year.
The Verdin Co. of Cincinnati is tasked with the Manchester Chime project, which includes removal of 10 bronze bells from the Administration Building tower Aug. 9 to 11, the university said in a news release.
Along with refurbishing the bells, which range in weight from 550 to 2,650 pounds, work includes creating four bells and installing a new open bell tower next spring or summer in the middle of the Manchester University Mall, the release said.
Alumni and others raised $8,700 in the early 1920s to buy the original chime, and its players – mostly students – pushed hand levers in a drafty room directly below the bells, even in winter, the release said.

If you want to tackle driving the Nullarbor Plain, prepare to hear stories of the 1256 kilometre-long, achingly boring drive across southern Australia. But just an hour west of Ceduna, where the plain officially starts, a left turn and a 10-minute drive leads you to a rainbow of lakes, including the watermelon-pink Lake MacDonnell. For those whose colour preferences stretch further than simply pink, it s match by a blue lake and a green lake of similarly eye-popping tones.
