Listed bells in ONB branch chronologically by founding date
***** this is just a small test made manually, a complete list is in preparation ******
The table below lists data as supplied by George Dawson, with the addition
of the last two columns which have been added from the data elsewhere on
this CD, they are the ringable state (Click on the word 'State' in the table
heading to find out the meaning of the letters in this column.)
and the OS Grid Ref of the tower. A red N
means the data for that field is not known.
A link is given on the parish name
to towers which have further details on this CD, that is
where the bells are part of a ring of 3 or more bells hung for
full-circle ringing, otherwise there is just an OS. Grid Ref.
