[Bell Historians] Dual stays

[Bickerton, Roderic (SELEX GALILEO, UK)]

I have seen early double stays coming together to form a single, a
twined stay, but not 2 independent, as far as I can remember.
sounds like an error as it would need the slider to go through a larger
angle.
Perhaps someone replaced a twinned stay
 

I do not work Wednesday Thursday or Friday.

I visited Millbrook, Bedfordshire on Saturday and both bells are fitted
with dual stays positioned either side of the headstock on the opposite
side to the wheel. One stay engages the slider at Handstroke and the
other at backstroke. I have not seen an arrangement like this before.
How common is this?
