Excavations in the outer court of the Cluniac priory uncovered a circular, funnel-shaped pit with a hard fired clay lining and an irregular pit whose contents included bronze waste, burnt limestone blocks and fired clay pieces, some with bronze waste on their surfaces. These remains are indicative of bell-making by the lost-wax process, and were dated to the twelfth century by jug fragments also found in the second pit. The bell-making process is described. | ||||||
