Applying elbow-grease to restore an old bell’s lustre is Mr Derek Davidson, a joiner with the Ministry of Works. The bell is being cleaned and polished before being restored to its place in the bell tower of Ivey Hall at Lincoln College, from where it was removed 12 years ago. The old tower was rotten, and a replica has been built to house the bell, about which little is known, as it bears no casting marks.
