Notes

[1]Notes about the bell

Raven noted that The [round] tower has fallen down, and there is no bell at all. This is the only place in England I have found thus destitute. Tom Ridgman (DAC Advisor) reported that a modern bell had been hung subsequently in a turret by 1936, though hadn’t visited.
