Why did you ring the town bell?
To get the villagers to drop of their food and return to work quickly. Note that I didn't have enough food to advance before ringing the town bell while I had plenty afterwards.
If you get an armoury upgrade before you get to classical and you advance while it is researching does it still remain 50% slower to research?
No it's starts researching faster the moment you advance. You can see it in this video if you look closely to copper weapons in the top-left.
