I would also bet money on this bell being a Warner example.
>From what I've experience in the past, brass foundry bells turn a dirty sea
blue colour.
This bell looks very similar to two of my Sussex examples: Spithurst and
Worth Abbey (service bell)
On bells that size and design, Warners used to put an Inscription around
the Soundbow.
Typically inscribed:
J. WARNER & SONS (LTD) LONDON date.
I have included an attachment of the Sussex examples too.
Best wishes,
Kye Leaver.
