Salisbury bell foundry

[2] Pynkere was still the bell-founder in 1495, when he recast the treble and fourth bells for St Edmund's.

[10] The Salisbury foundry made bells for many churches in southern Wiltshire and the adjacent parts of Dorset and Hampshire.

[10] Lukis records the founders as follows, and explains that the overlapping dates arise from partnerships or from their roles – such as furnace superintendent and mould-maker – in the various departments of the busy foundry.

[12] Despite this large number of surviving bells, there is very little published material about the foundry, and the only comprehensive study is an 1859 article by the Rev WC Lukis in the Journal of the British Archaeological Association.

[16][17] They also cast the sixth and seventh bells of the peal at St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin.
