<div>What was Grimthorpe trying to achieve? Casting thick bells to inhibit the unwanted and uncontrollable (at that time) partials?</div>

<p>Jim Hedgecock asked me a question about the chart I posted on Taylor <br>tenors, which caused me to realise that I had mislabelled one of the <br>bells. The one I described as 'St Pauls' is actually Great Paul - good <br>
and thick - that's why we like it so much. The ringing tenor is <br>actually very average in terms of thickness, as one would expect from <br>the rejection of Grimthorpe's recommendation. I have posted a corrected <br>
plot for those who are *really* interested.<br><br>Bill H<br><br></p></div><span style="COLOR: white" width="1"></span> </div></blockquote></div><br>
