Christopher Dalton’s “magisterial study”, The Bells and Belfries of Dorset, was published between 2000 and 2005. In 2007 its author received the prestigious Dorset Archaeological Award for what was described as “the foremost amongst the surveys of bells in the counties of the British Isles” and “a work of national as well as local interest and importance”.
“The descriptions of bells, frames and fittings are by no means dry. Christopher had a way of putting the focus on points of genuine interest, always with shrewd observation and often with wit. His photographs – and the books are profusely illustrated – are just wonderful. Nobody else has succeeded in photographing bells with such an eye for detail or in creating images of such high quality. The books are worth having just to browse through the pictures. They are a “must have” for anyone interested in what goes on above the ringing room or curious to know about bells and belfries of churches off the radar to most ringers.” (Christopher Pickford)
