"Why do we assume that Cyril Johnston copied a Taylor bell? He was a
pretty clever chap by all accounts."
It is not just the bell it is the whole installation - later they did go
their own way with many designs but the example at Kirkby Malzeard is so
like a Taylor installation.


"...Whitechapel in the early 20s (they took their old style guage which
produced bells closest to a Simpson bell and adapted it)?"
And never got any closer!
