ABOUT TAYLOR'S BELLFOUNDRY

Since 1859, our grade II* listed bellfoundry has cast more than 25,000 bells in Loughborough that are hung in more than 100 countries around the world. Taylor bells hang in nearly every cathedral in England and in thousands of parish churches. From Inverary in the north to Truro in the South West, from London’s St. Paul’s Cathedral to York Minster, Taylor bells have defined the soundscape of Britain for more than two centuries.

The Loughborough Bellfoundry Trust was established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in 2016 with the objective of protecting the historic John Taylor bellfoundry buildings, archive and museum collections for future generations. Supported by a passionate team of volunteers, staff and trustees our vision is for Taylor’s Bellfoundry to become the global centre for the art of bellmaking and learning. The sound of Taylor bells can be heard all over the planet. Through Conservation, Education and Celebration, we can ensure that future generations on every continent will be brought together by A Ring of Taylor Bells.
