Rededication of 6 bells at Langton church

by the Bishop of Lincoln

ALL WELCOME

The bells were made in 1825 by Thomas Mears and were not rung "full circle" between 1956 and 2008. They were restored in 2008 by Thomas Mears's successor Whitechapel Bell Foundry.

Report on

Village Fete and BBQ

12 July 2008

You may be interested to know that the fete and BBQ raised exactly £800, which is really amazing considering the awful weather the day before and even that morning.

Many thanks to all who helped with the fete, either by manning stalls or - equally importantly - by coming and enjoying it.

Next year - who knows? Some are suggesting that we have a barn dance. Get thinking now!
