Ladock, Cornwall, The Parish Church of St Ladoca.

taylorbellswebsite

The tower of this church houses a Taylor eight with an 11 cwt tenor bell in the key of Ab. The back six bells date from 1883, and the trebles from 1925. All eight bells hang in an oak bell frame of 1883 by William Aggett & Sons.

An order has now been received to remove the entire installation from the tower and for a major restoration and recasting to be undertaken.

Bells 3, 4, 5 & 6 will be recast, with bells 1, 2, 7 & 8 being retuned. A new lowside cast iron bell frame, built on a galvanised steel grillage will be designed and constructed, and all new bell fittings will be manufactured.
