Rings of 5 or 6 bells
in Australia and New Zealand

Since rings of 5 and 6 bells do not fit in the database which underlies this Website, this page provides a collective place to reference such rings, allowing them to be included in regional locator maps for rings in Australia and rings in New Zealand.  Sites are listed in country and city order, which coincidentally is also the order by size.

NOTE:  Rings of this size which are embedded in chimes of 8 or more bells are Indexed with the larger rings in Asia and the Pacific Rim.  The rings listed here are included in the various ring-specific indexes for this region but not in the corresponding indexes for chime-sized instruments in this region nor in the generic indexes for all tower-bell instruments in this region.  These rings are also omitted from bellfoundry indexes.

Separate rings of 5 or 6 bells are pictured (and possibly also described in more detail) on the ANZAB Webpage linked to each place name:
