Publisher's Synopsis

Curiosities of the Belfry is a book written by John Potter Briscoe that explores the mysteries and peculiarities of church bell towers. The book delves into the history of bells and their significance in religious and cultural traditions, as well as the engineering and craftsmanship involved in constructing and maintaining bell towers.

With a mix of historical research and personal anecdotes, Curiosities of the Belfry offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of church bells and their towers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
