| NOTES ON THE CHURCH AND BELLS
Manaton have a nice little six although a little
odd struck, especially the fourth. The bells themselves are quite
interesting as three of the bells are medieval. One being cast
in the foundry of Robert Norton about the end of the 15C two others
were cast locally by Johanna Hill, widow of a London bellfounder
and marks indicate a date between 1440 and 1443.
The local pub is called the Kestor Arms. Not bad food and reasonably
priced, beer is generally OK with a couple of real ales on tap. |
