All Saints Cathedral Bells, Church bells at All Saints Cathedral in Bathurst, Australia

All Saints Cathedral Bells are six bronze bells cast by John Warner and Sons of Crescent Foundry, London, between 1853 and 1855. They were hung in Edmund Blacket's bell tower at Bathurst by 8 December 1855. After the tower was demolished in 1970, the bells lay on grass behind the courthouse, were restored in England in 1988, and are now stored in Kelso, with one bell displayed in the cathedral narthex.

A public subscription managed by Bathurst businessman Thomas Sloman raised £800, and in February 1851 he sailed to England to order six bells from John Warner and Sons of London. The bells reached Sydney in February 1855 but were hauled over the Blue Mountains one by one, the last being hung on 8 December 1855. They first rang in early 1856, the first peal rung outside the colonial capitals.

The bells shape Bathurst's sound and connect the city to its religious past in a tangible way. Visitors experience their historical importance when exploring the cathedral interior and learning how they once marked the rhythm of community life.

The bells are located within the cathedral building and can be viewed during visits to the structure. Visitors should plan to come during regular opening hours and dress respectfully when entering a place of worship.

The bells were cast by Warner and Sons, a less common London foundry, rather than the more famous Whitechapel Foundry used for most colonial bells. This makes them a rare example of how bell-making diversity reached Australia during the colonial period.
