St Neots

Oxford
1821 - 1854
William Taylor was Robert's eldest son, and he carried on the Oxford foundry upon his brother's move to Loughborough.
Around 1844, he converted to using gothic letters, using a capital for the initial letters.
He passed away in 1854, leaving no bells for Sussex. The closest being some in Hampshire.
The Oxford foundry was closed down after his death, and his work tools were likely transferred to Loughborough.
