<p>One of the bells I saw while on holiday in France was extremely squat. <br>
Excluding canons it was ~17" high and ~34" diameter.<br>
<br>
It was standing on a pallet so no idea what it sounds like.<br>
<br>
There are pictures of it at:<br>

<a href="http://jaharrison.me.uk/Temp/SarlatBell2.jpg" target="_blank">http://jaharrison.me.uk/Temp/<wbr>SarlatBell2.jpg</a><br>
<br>
The inscription (on the back and difficult to see, not visible in the<br>
pictures) is:<br>
<br>
1825 AUGUSTIN MARTIN PAINTANDRE ET CAUSARD TONDEURS<br>
<br>
Any idea why it was that shape, which I haven't seen before?<br>
<br>
