[Bell Historians] Bell and iron founding

[David Willis]

It is my understanding that Whitechapel, G&J and Taylors cast their
headstocks and frames in house.
 
Am I correct ?

Andrew Wilby's recent letter of announcement regarding the future of 
the Taylor bellfoundry included the words "highest standards of bell 
and iron founding." I must confess to having been surprised at that. 
In spite of my long familiarity with the excellence of Taylor's work 
(having begun to learn carillon playing on a Taylor instrument more 
than half a century ago), I had never been aware that they were 
involved in casting iron.
