Well, we've already touched on the difference between bell fittings and
bell ringing history. I've always taken an active interest in the
latter, rather that the former.



I'll join you there. Fittings don't exactly leave me cold, but to me they
are of secondary interest to the bells, the people who rung them, maintained
them, interacted with the clergy, town etc, and the evolution of the bells
and ringing in a tower/town/county.
