[Bell Historians] Mardale

[David Sloman]

In the text of Sam's email on Mardale it mentions Carlisle St. Barnabus as the beneficiary of some of the contents of Mardale Church, could the bell have gone there, a Roger Bolton bell of 1825?

  I visited Mardale a few years ago when we had a particularly hot summer. The reservoir very nearly dry and the remains of the old village reappeared. Interestingly, Chapel Bridge was still intact and the stream followed the same route as it did when this photo was taken; http://www.mardale.green.talktalk.net/chapel_bridge.htm


  I did read an old guide book which stated that the single bell from Mardale church was transferred to a church near Carlisle. Unfortunately, I can't remember the new location of the bell, or which book this was in. I do remember it was an 18th century bell. Sorry not to be of more help. 

  Aye
