<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>Just to say that I popped in to the
church at Kingstone, Somerset, about a fortnight ago, to see if there was
a weight chart or any information in the church - but there's nothing. The
church guide mentions that the bells are </FONT><FONT face="Comic Sans MS"
size=2>mainly by M&S 1931 with two old ones</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>I have information from Christopher
Dalton that bells 1, 2 4 and 6 are by M&S - and actually dated 1930. But I
can't add anything else</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>It's a pity Chris that I didn't know you were going to visit , a ring could
easily have been arranged and access to the bells . I regret that there isn't
information in the church & I will have a word with the authorities . I
thought that 1,2,4,5,and 6 were M & S 1931 and that the 3rd is an ancient
bucket . I am of course open to correction . Also there are details of a peal (
rung in 1946 ) inscribed in the church roof . </DIV>
