Stottesdon Church Clock

A message from Clare Tibbits:
 

'work has commenced in the church tower to enable the reinstatement of the fourth (treble) bell which has been out of use for many months. On Tuesday July 16th the treble was lifted down and taken away to Taylor's Loughborough Bell Foundry for repairs. Whilst the bell is away there is more space than usual in the tower - meaning that thorough cleaning and maintenance  can be more easily and safely undertaken in the bell chamber.

This deep clean is likely to take until the end of July and so, until August there will be no bellringing for services and the clock chimes will be temporarily disconnected. The clock will continue to tell the time as usual, but it will not 'ring -out' hourly on the hour.

These will be updated with any new notifications received.
