They were removed from the tower and put in the church cellar at this date. While the bells were out, the top of the tower was removed for rebuilding due to a lighting strike. When the top was down, the damage was found to be so extensive that the entire tower was pulled down. It was rebuilt, but was left for 10 years at nave height. After the delay, it was completed to the same design as its predecessor. In 1901 Mears rehung the bells dead in the finished tower. They also recast the 6th (dated 1900) which was cracked after the bells were no longer rung and were clocked by "Two Lads". The rest of the bells are by T. Mears in 1794.

NT 245 736 Clock Chime Elstree Herts England School Chapel 5 1-3-27 F# "It is generally reckoned that the clock chime for Elstree School was the first G&J foray into true-harmonic tuning. Extract from paper written by Cyril Johnston in 1948 in. He said, ""My firm had installed some clock bells...at a famous school at Elstree and the owners complained of the tone, whereupon Dr. William Wooding Starmer...was called in and recommended that the bells should be sent to a competitor firm to be recast. In my youthful enthusiasm, this seemed to be a bit hard and I persuaded my father to allow me to experiment and at the same time to stop production of bells which were in progress at the Foundry. It so happened that I was very fortunate and hit upon the principal cause of trouble within a matter of weeks and also how to correct these faults, so that the bells might comply with the late Canon Simpson's theory..."" The ""competitor firm"" was obviously Taylor's, given Starmer's close association with them. (per Jill Johnston, May 2002) Pevsner ""Hertfordshire"" in the Buildings of England series (2nd ed, 1977) p.140 mentions Hill House (formerly Elstree School) at the south end of the High Street, and the former chapel ""now demolished"" on the opposite side of the road which had Kempe glass of 1877-1906 (also mentioned is the separate ""St.Nicholas School (now disused), a striking Arts & Crafts building put up by Lord Aldenham in 1882-3) Elstree School was founded in 1848. It's chapel was designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield (presumably c.1877) and demolished in about 1970. The school relocated to Woolhampton, Reading, Berks, RG7 5TD in about 1974. Croydon foundry records: The first set of bells for Elstree School, cast in Dec.1905 (no.3) and Feb.1906 (the rest) and sent out 29 May 1906, were as follows: 1.

Two sets of weights are recorded, one in the ""notebook"" (with the musical notes) and (identically) in the register, and the other set in the tuning book. They are the first bells recorded in the new tuning book and it is said that they were the first ""Simpson"" bells cast at Croydon).
