I wish it was a tune sometimes although I suppose you could get irritated by that as well.
On that note there have been a number of cases where the church bells have silences either through the Court or by more sinister and typically english means...in this case by a mystery Villager cutting the Bell ropes.

I think it somewhat fatuous for Secularists and Atheists to buy big homes near Churches and then complain at the merest peal of the Bell.....such pettifogging misery is all too typical in our materialistic ungodly World.

Anyway..I'll drag you all...kicking and screaming...BACK to the question...its not
just a question about Chimes but about how the brain works.
An uncluttered innocent and unfettered creative brain would solve the question straight away.
..nowadays we're hidebound by rules and regulations...we are taught by means of rote and are brainwashed by the latest trendy fad though up by the latest trendy scientist...what was once Velikovsky is todays Meme theoriser..we really shouldnt give them much note...their credence will soon dwindle to a mere footnote in History.
The Bell will...
always Toll.
...and eventually someone somewhere will think practically like a workman making the Clock rather than thinking like someone who has been locked in a science lab breeding white mice!
