4. The tenor at Bradford on Avon is listed because either 
it, or the tenor at St Thomas, Bristol, is the heaviest 
Llewellins and James bell. Presumably they regard that as a 
"significant example of technical innovation", which is the 
phrase in their published criteria for a post-1850 bell. I 
forget what the tenor sounds like, but if it sounds any 
good, that would indeed be a significant innovation from 
Llewellins and James.

When Christopher Dalton visited Holy Trinity bells he pronounced the tenor
to be 'magic' (though that was after Taylors had tuned it in 1998)
