[Bell Historians] van Aerschodt bell for sale

Am away - have been near Cattistock today! - but will look at this when home. But does the ebay stuff show any inscription or identifying marks?
I do have some info on bells supplied to UK destinations - and not all locations have been identified
The Lye bells aren't 1880 - they're undated, but probably cast in 1883 and hung in 1885 (from memory)

Phil Gay pointed this one out to me a few days ago.

I don't think it is one of the Cattistock bells as according to Dalton's Dorset, only one of them (bell no 28) was dated 1880 (a recast) and this weighed only 0-1-5 in A - rather light for a 17" bell. Nearly all of the others had personalised inscriptions. The Lye are all dated 1880.

Cheers,

Matthew
