[Bell Historians] G&J bell - Birkenhead docks

[Revd David Cawley]

The Company supplied lighthouse fittings, buoy accessories, lightship 
gear etc. As we know, bell-buoys, lighthouses etc were all equipped with 
Bells. Some of these were supplied direct through Trinity House, and 
some by the G.A.C. I've seen Trinity House Bells by Mears, Taylors, G&J, 
Warners and one, at Dover, by Barwell, so the "nature of the company's 
interest" appears to have been commercial.

pages 40 and 41 of my "Church Bells of the         Channel Islands

The late Bill Hughes told me that they had supplied a             number 
of these Bells, usually as alternatives to Trinity             House.




Could anyone please explain the nature of this company's interest 
in bells?
