[Bell Historians] Thurnham

[Peter Rivet]

The details I have of the tenor are:

JOHN TAYLOR & SON FOUNDER LOUGHBOROUGH 1848.
33.5"                                                     7-2-22

     SANCTA MARIA ORA PRO NOBIS

The inscriptions on the rest are similar but with the names of different
saints.

They are reputedly the first post reformation change ringing bells to have
been installed in a Roman Catholic church.

    There are conflicting details to hand as regard to the founder of the 5
    bells in Thurnham RC church. Can anyone confirm the name of the
    founder, date of casting and any other details. Particularly were they
    the first ring of bells cast by J Taylor working alone, probably in
    1847 or 1848?

    Thanks

    Mike Chester
