Masterpiece of Gloucester bell founder’s 22 peal feat
A Braham Rudhall of Gloucester cast two trebles to form a full peal of 22 bells for the parish of St Brides London. The piece, hailed as England’s first 22 bell peal with changes, faced many difficulties but exceeded expectations, celebrated as the masterwork of his labours. Additional items advertise medical and religious books, medicines, and auctions.
