[Bell Historians] Lincoln College

[Steve Stanford]

Indeed - some time after the change Brian White asked (I think) Andrew
Stubbs to ring in a peal "at Lincoln". They subsequently met seven at
Lincoln College with the eighth ringer a couple of hundred miles up the road
and eleven short!

You need to look up All Saints' Church, Oxford - it only became Lincoln
College Library in 1976 - unfortunately, my copy of CBOO is currently in
storage, along with the rest of my books, which we have major building work
done to the house.

Hello Brian,

CB Oxon say that Lincoln College has a single bell 21-1/2 in. in diameter
bell hung for ringing, which was cast by Abel Rudhall of Gloucester in 1748.


No mention of any other bells and no mention of any All Saints.

Regards

Alan Ellis

Does anyone have the details of the previous treble bell (or bells) at
Lincoln College Oxford, or All Saints Church as it was then, prior to 1874?

Or any other 18c bells at Lincon College.

Gardner's Oxfordshire Directory for 1852 states that there were `five good
bells'.

I do not have access to F. Sharpe's `Bells of Oxen' so I do not know if
there is anything in there about this.
