Greetham
The refurbished bells of Greetham St Mary’s were on display in the church over the weekend of July 12th, 13th, 14th. The installation of new framework is required before they can be re-hung.
There will be a service of celebration attended by the Bishop and other dignitaries in September when the bells will be heard again in their full glory.
