Refurbishment work will be carried out with the chimes due to begin again by the end of March.

A spokesperson for Lichfield City Council said: “Clock experts Smiths of Derby will be removing the hammers which strike the bells for refurbishment.

“It is hoped they will be reinstated by the end of March.”
