In case anyone was wondering about where we are with getting our bell rehung, here's the latest from CCT. The bell remains at Taylor's Bellfoundry, Loughborough & their work has been paid for by NYMNPA. Last February the Friends of Old St Stephen's were told by CCT that having received a bequest, the money is now available for them to proceed with overseeing this project. Planning permission tor reinstate the bell is in place.
Hi Deb
I just wanted to reach out, I appreciate it's later than promised and I apologise about that. So this is just a quick note to let you know we've not forgotten about you .
We've a couple of things to resolve internally before we can move forward but our agreed route forward is still on the table.
Helen or I will be in touch soon when, hopefully it'll be all systems go.
Thanks
Mark Sproat
Lead Local Community Officer, North Region
