Mick I think we don't have them to find as they must have been more of a "warding off the devil" or similar in the richer areas of the country. A guy I know near Reading has over a hundred mainly off flat fields in less than seven years. They also seem to have more horse brasses.

Found peices of both crotal and rumbler bells in the Vale, which are unfortunatly not in good condition, but they are out there.
