They've been rated as the best full ring (or set) of bells in the world. A needlelike tower, wrapped in copper sails, was specially built to house a complete "ring" of 18 bells, including 12 historic, centuries-old bells from London's St. Martin-in-the-Fields (donated for Australia's bicentenary) and others that were specially cast. The tower stands out above Barrack Street Jetty on the Swan River, immediately below the city. It had to be soundproofed to minimize disturbing nearby workers but, as a result, can hardly be heard away from the jetty, which is sad. Try to visit when ringing is in progress -- generally noon to 1pm when volunteers available.
