[Bell Historians] Help needed

[c.j.pickford at talk21.com]

Frank Seabright has drawn my attention to a manuscript recently acquired by
the British Library - The "Red Book of Bath" (add Ms 89789) - which contains
some entries relating to bells. The whole manuscript is available online at
https://iiif.bl.uk/uv/?_gl=1*1eya6d7*_ga*MzUyNjgyNjQyLjE3NDkwNDE0NzY.#?manif
est=https://bl.digirati.io/manifests/ark:/81055/man_10000025.0x000001 - and
as far as I can see the actual references on folio 16 verso to 17 verso are
to be found on images 43 to 45 of the online version.

 

My Latin isn't good enough to tackle this. Also, the British Library
manuscripts catalogue isn't online at present - they're still rebuilding it
following the cyber-attack in 2023 - so I can't check the catalogue
description to see that these pages are supposed to be about

 

Anyone with a good knowledge of Latin and palaeography willing to take a
look and do a translation?
