A very picturesque Cotswold village in a quiet setting but not too far from Stow on the Wold, Broadway or Evesham. A fairly nice ring of six could be improved by some slight retuning around the middle bells.
@pal05pmajor3 We have a few bells round Swindon by a founder called Edward Neale who was casting in Burford the same times as the Keenes - the 7 at Stratton St Margaret, the 2 at Kemble, among others, are all tonally dreadful. Have a look at my vid of Bloxham's Tenor being lowered, that is a 1648ish James Keene bell and it is very good indeed :)
