Some account of his family and of himself has already appeared in this Journal. No record of the Abbey of Margam would be complete without honourable mention of these lords, the leading Welsh family of their time in Glamorgan, and the local protectors of, and liberal benefactors to, the religious community.

Page 212 - It is available for any number of bells, and lately it has been fixed at Worcester Cathedral, for chiming the twelve bells for the daily services. It brings all the bells under control to any point in the church, when they may be chimed with perfect ease by one man or boy. Being independent of the belfry, it interferes in no way with the ringers when a peal is to be rung.
