I believe that these bells were rehung and retuned by Mears & Stainbank in the 1920s. There may indeed be exact weights recorded for these bells, but this type of information is not currently available.

In the ringing chamber at Mells, there is plenty of information about the bells - founders, dates and inscriptions - but a only a list of approximate weights. I notice that the tenor is given by Dove as 26-2-23. Are the other exact weights known? There is also no indication of when they were last restored / re-hung / tuned. Is there information available on this?
Finally, is anything more known about the Sanctus bell? It appears on Dove as 'unidentified founder, c1325'.
Thanks again for recent responses to my questions!
