Notes
[1]Notes from Bill Hibbert visit, 4 Aug 2022
The chime of 8 are hung dead in a steel frame with baton clavier and carillon transmission and clappers. The swinging bell is in a timber frame on a timber headstock with a wheel (falling to bits) and plain bearings. There are no fixing marks for a stay or slider on the current headstock or frame.
