26/11/2018   Photo a Day  Building





The Carillon, with 35 bells, was constructed in 1933 as a memorial to the men of Bathurst and District who served in World War One and all wars since that Australia has seen action.
The reason I chose this building is that today for the first time since 1933 the bells are silent whilst workers from a foundry in England replace some bells and add more new ones.
