One for Nigel Taylor / Whitechapel to resolve, I feel. It's clear that the =
foundry records give 4-0-3, but a knowledge of the tuning and weighing at t=
he time procedures may enable Nigel to explain the discrepancy and decide w=
hich weight to use. Whitechapel certainly marked weights like this, but mos=
t that I've seen tally with the weights recorded in the records. This is un=
usual.

There's a chalked weight inside the tenor at Cold Brafield, Bucks, cast in =
1828 by Taylors at Oxford. The same weight for this bell (3-3-4) is also re=
corded in one of the very old notebooks at Loughborough!
