Bell Frame

Bellframes Type 9 - A
Bellcote: a structure of masonry extending above the roofline of a building and usually carried up from a wall or arch (e.g. chancel arch or western gable of a church). Single and double bellcotes are common, and examples designed to carry three or more bells are occasionally found.
 

Classification from "Bellframes - A Practical Guide to Inspection and Recording - C J Pickford 1993"

Tuning

The figures and diagram below show the difference, in cents, between each bell and what it should be to be in tune with the tenor.
A positive figure shows that the bell is sharp, a negative figure shows that it is flat. There are 100 cents between notes on the scale.
