Modern Whitechapel bells with canons

[nigelsdtaylor]

The doncaster canons were finally phased out during the 1920's. 
Doncaster headed bells were made for Caversfield and Deddington after 
WW II at Fred Sharpe's request. The conventional canon design was 
used for the Liberty replicas, the first in 1964, a batch in 1975/6 
and 2 more in 2002/3. We still have the pattern equipment for 
conventional canons, but we prefer to use the Doncaster patterns 
because it is possible to machine these flat, and therefore attach 
the headstock onto the canons.
