Alarms on the wall
Some alarm equipment on the wall of Cavendish House, possibly still capable of ringing.
Kindly, John Webb has some illuminating details about them:
These are sprinkler alarm gongs. If the sprinkler systems are active, then these will ring. They are powered by small water wheels turned by a small flow of water diverted from the operating system. The systems almost certainly are monitored by more modern communication methods to raise an off-site warning of operation or faults.

Cheltenham's Everyman Theatre
Designed by Victorian architect, Frank Matcham, and originally called The New Theatre & Opera House when it opened in October 1891, the theatre staged classical plays and serious dramas and attracted the likes of Lily Langtry, Ellen Terry, HB Irving and Charlie Chaplin in its early days.
The theatre changed hands in 1925, and greater variety was brought to the stage – including ballet, opera and comedy.
After the Second World War, the popularity of the theatre declined alongside the rise of the cinema or picture houses, and in 1959 it was announced that The New Theatre & Opera House would close. However, the Cheltenham Theatre Association was formed, funds were raised and by May 1960, the theatre had been overhauled with new fittings, a new company and a new name, The Everyman Theatre.
The theatre was again refurbished at the end of the 1970s and today is a popular venue providing audiences with a wide genre of arts and entertainment. This year’s panto is Aladdin.
