The Loughborough Bell Foundry
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.

The clappers and crown staples will be completely refurbished. The cast iron & steel bell frame will be cleaned and repainted to complete the restoration.
