Photographs and information on the Dutch Reformed Church and its bells in Oudtshoorn. The Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk in Oudtshoorn has one large bell that is incredibly hard to reach. It was impossible to take a picture of the bell in its entirety.
Below the shoulder we read in between a pair of double moulding wires JAMES BARWELL FOUNDER BIRMINGHAM 1878 illustrating one of the few bells by this founder that carry a founding date. Since the bell is hanging in a totally closed tower it is not surprising that the bell is covered with a thin layer of dust.
