[Bell Historians] St John's Bradford

[David Cawley]

No. There is a commemorative inscription on one of them recording the original St John's bells. The Barwell bells all had special inscriptions, some of considerable length; the Mears bell (5#) just had THOMAS MEARS FOUNDER LONDON 1840. Unusual - he usually put T. or THOMAS MEARS OF LONDON FOUNDER (or FECIT) + date.

Did they reproduce the inscriptions? I've rung at Bradford Cathedral but not
been up to look at the bells.
