Archaeology of Bellframes

Brooke, Christopher J

Bellframes are among the least visible of church elements and, therefore, have been victim to the `out of sight, out of mind' syndrome as far as serious academic study is concerned. This volume, the result of a symposium organised by the IFA Buildings Special Interest Group and held in Retford in 1994, presents six papers which examine the remarkable technolgy behind these structures which have borne the weight of these mighty bells for centuries, enabling them to be rung `full circle', their conservation and preservation, and the archaeological evidence for their history. Fully illustrated throughout. 48p, many b/w illus (IFA 1994)
