spending too much time on it, it looks as though we provided fittings for the 5
bells, recast the tenor and supplied various bits of steel etc to strengthen
the frame. The work was ordered by G&J (clocks) Ltd. rather than the
previous company (readers will be aware that companies occasionally have to
change their names!?) The last bell supplied to the G&J that we all know
love and copy was for East Lansing College
and that was in 1957. We also supplied a chime of bells to G&J (clocks) ltd
in 1961 to go to Warwick , Queensland , so not the last one with G&J
name on it.</span></font></p>

it was added within the existing frame. I don't have a weight for it.<br>
<br>
(Incidentally - although this might have been discussed before - there is a
photograph in the ringing chamber at Haslingfield, showing the present tenor.
Its inscription shows its original date as 1816, and adds that it was recast
in 1960 for Gillett & Johnston by John Taylor & Co. This must surely
one of the very last bells to bear Gillett & Johnston's name?)<br>

But is the bell from 1969 or just a re-hang?<br>
