Description: Inside Taylor's workshop in Loughborough (Leicestershire), St.Peter's new bells are ready with their fittings for hanging in the tower. The attachment on top of each is the headstock.
Notice how the larger bells are 'tucked up'into the headstock to ensure a good centre of gravity.
Note also how each of the inscriptions show up clearly.
