Winterton however is something of an enigma according to many sources the bells where condemned because of frame defects but there is no mention of when this was or when indeed they where last rung!, the NDACR report lists them as being ringable in 1996 so I'm guessing this was in the late 1990s?<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'>Many thanks<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'>Oliver lee<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></body></html>
