Whitechapel Bell Foundry (Q174855)

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Whitechapel Bell Foundry was a business in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. At the time of the closure of its Whitechapel premises, it was the oldest manufacturing company in Great Britain. The bell foundry primarily made church bells and their fittings and accessories, although it also provided single tolling bells, carillon bells and handbells. The foundry was notable for being the original manufacturer of the Liberty Bell, a famous symbol of American independence, and for re-casting Big Ben, which rings from the north clock tower (the Elizabeth Tower) at the Houses of Parliament in London.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Die Glockengießerei Whitechapel Bell Foundry entstand um 1670 und folgte auf Betriebe, die seit dem 15. Jahrhundert an der Whitechapel Road im East End von London Glocken herstellten. Sie galt als die älteste Glockengießerei in England. Das Unternehmen trug vom 19. Jahrhundert bis 1968 den Namen Mears & Stainbank und firmierte seither als Gießerei Whitechapel.
