[Bell Historians] Carillon

[Chris Pickford]

what is the foundry going to do after the bells are done.?

Read the web-link that David provided. Dartington is a well-known centre for arts, crafts and design. The idea is that the foundry would continue to be used for casting works of art. They're not looking for a traditional foundry - but a state of the art one. Our bellfounders wouldn't be well placed to cast an instrument on this scale anyway - but others in Europe and beyond have produced huge bells in recent years and do have the skills and technology

The project visionaries aren't looking to be constrained by tradition or limits of current facilities here!
