CD/DLC re Petham:

Can confirm these details. Of course, Petham were originally cast as stock
bells, hence a set of rather uninteresting inscriptions. Pictures at

DJB:
"Irrespective of who uses them, I think they're ugly, unsightly things - as
are the angular canons used by Taylor's in the 1880s. My preference is for
proper curved canons with an argent, and if they're ornamented all the
better!"

Have you met Chris Cooper?
