Plate V1 is of decoration on a bell showing no gear except for a metal 
rod and plate X1 showing the wheel, headstock, straps, stay and top of 
the bell. Sharpe describes them as a ring of eight bells. 
As Sharpe says, what is very interesting is that there was a ring of 
eight bells here before 1736.
