Notes
[1]Note about the Eldridge founder
These bells must be cast by Bryan II Eldridge instead of Bryan I Eldridge because the Eldridge bells are inscribed with the fleur de lis stop instead of his fathers heart shape stop. Bryan Jnr didn’t use this heart stop during the period he was casting. [Kye Leaver, visit Jul 2021]

One of the pits is foreshortened so not entirely symmetrical.
