More about this scene
'Hal' or 'Hallgate' - the spelling may change, but it is the same place. The church was built between 1316 and 1416, and originally had five bells. Edward IV, who must have needed some cash, had an inventory done on all the churches in England. It was reckoned that Cottingham only needed four bells, so one was sold off: it raised £25 at auction.
