Walters, H B, the Church Bells of Somerset, Part II, Volume 66
Cfje Cfmrcb TBelte of Somerset BY H. B. WALTERS, M.A., F.S.A. IN 1875, now forty-five years ago, the Rev. Canon H. T. Ellacombe of Clyst St. Mary, Devonshire, published a monograph on the Church Bells of Somerset, in continuation of his previous work on those of Devonshire. After a brief intro- duction in which something was said of the inscriptions on the mediaeval bells, and somewhat less of their founders, a list was given of the inscriptions on all (or rather, nearly all) the bells of the Somerset churches, ancient and modern. The indefatigable author had then reached the ripe age of eighty, and the book is a monument of an old man's industry. But for this very reason he was necessarily dependent upon the assistance of correspondents and helpers for all his informa- tion/and although he personally visited every tower but one in Devon (previously to 1867), it is probable that he never actually saw a single bell in Somerset. He tells us in fact, in his preface, how his information was all obtained by diligent posting of letters to incumbents, churchwardens, and even parish clerks. The result of this, however, was that his descriptions of the bells were by no means either as full or as accurate as could have been wished. Many of his correspondents were doubtless inexperienced in reading inscriptions, especially in old lettering, and they were liable to miss ornaments or marks in unusual positions. Thus at Hornblotton and at Lovington mediaeval bells are passed over in silence ;* at other places inscriptions 1.

PC Minutes 11 February 2019
CURRY MALLET PARISH COUNCIL ORDINARY MEETING OF THE PARISH COUNCIL Minutes of the meeting of Curry Mallet Parish Council held on February 11th 2019, in the Curry Mallet and Beercrocombe Village Hall, Curry Mallet. Present: Mr P McKeown (Chairman), Mr R J Allard, Mr G K Townrow, Mr L W Frazer, Mr D R Beck. Part-time Attendance: Cllr Sue Steele, Cllr Clare Paul & Cllr David Hall (SCC Cabinet member for Economic Dev., Planning & Community Infrastructure (all re min. 1709), Mrs M F Hughes & Mr M Cavill (both re min. 1708). 1708. Public Participation Time. Mrs Hughes, in her capacity as Tree Warden, apprised the Council of the intended felling of a chestnut tree within the village. As the tree was situated on private land, and was not covered by a Tree Protection Order or other legal provisions, the Council was not minded to take a view as to possible merits of its retention. Mrs Hughes was invited to canvass local opinion via the next issue of the parish newsletter, albeit with no recommendation from the Council. Mr Cavill introduced himself as a former farmer in Fivehead parish, and longstanding Chairman of its parish council, and stated his intent to stand for election in May as a prospective candidate for the District Council’s Islemoor Ward. 1709. To Receive Reports from the District and County Councillors on items that may be of interest. Cllr Sue Steele referred to MP David Warburton’s Private Member’s “Rivers Authorities & Land Drainage Bill” which, last Friday, had been passed, unopposed, at its Second Reading in the House of Commons; the bill, ultimately, would legislate the Somerset Rivers Authority as a Flood Risk Management Authority vested with powers to tackle and plan for future flood prevention measures, to be financed through raising a separate precept on Somerset householders.

DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.
