Not Quedgley, or a tenor, but our Rudhall bells at Holy Trinity, Bradford,
have a wonderful hum; to hear them coming down is stunning; the nearest
equivalent is an orchestra of cellos.  Bells by the Purdue family, John
Wallis and the Bilbies (Rode coming down is wonderful too) also have a good
hum, (happy bells according to my daughter).  Is it perhaps a characteristic
of founders who might have a Bristol association?
