Our Projects
With modern computer profiling we can, and do, cast bells of the same shape as bells produced by any bell founder. So if you want a Gillett & Johnston or Whitechapel bell, or one produced by Dobson of Downham Market or any other founder, just ask and we'll cast and tune it for you and it'll be a perfect match.

For the Enthusiast
Taylor Bell Foundry has probably cast more large bells than any other bell foundry in the history of bell founding. Unlike some other English Bell Founders, who contracted out the casting of large bells whilst putting their name on them, all the bell we list have been cast in Taylor's own foundry.
