Описание к видео Great Paul, The heaveist Bourdon bell in the UK at almost 16 3/4 tons

Great Paul is Britain's heaviest swinging Bell, It is located in the South West Tower of St Pauls Cathedral in London. It was cast by Taylors bell foundry and wieghs 16 ton 14 Cwt.
The bell rings at 1pm every day. It is now Electically rung but can remember it being rung manually. I believe the largest manaully rung bell is Great Peter of York Minister.

Now of course ths biggest bell in he UK is the Olympic bell, however itwill apparently never ring which is a shame.Also since taking this video in 2000 Great Paul doesn't ring either as the electric mechanism is broken.
