In Norwood, along Nahatan Street, is the Norwood Public Safety Building, which has a bell on the east side of the driveway to the fire vehicles.
The building is located on the north side of the road, near the intersection with Lenox Street, and across the street from a strip mall. The bell is easily visible from the road on a stone walkway and in front of a flagpole. The bell is mounted on a yoke which is installed on a stone pebble base, such that the bottom is above the base by about a foot. A plaque on the base states the following:
"In Memorium
Norwood Firefighters
Past and Present
Dedication
Sunday June 8, 1969"
On the bell is:
"Holbrook [] Son East Medway" This bell was made not very far from Norwood.
