Dear Friends of St Peter’s,

Firstly we would like to sincerely thank all those who previously

gave to our first appeal to repair our clock mechanism and bell

support structure and to install the night time silencer. This work was

completed following your generous help but a year later we have

been hit with further difficulties. The motor that drives the weight

that allows the bells to chime the number of hours has broken and

the estimate from Gillet and Johnson is £3,906. The clock is

thankfully still chiming every quarter but it is not chiming the

number of hours.

We can put some monies towards this repair but as you will

appreciate we have many other calls on our limited funds. Our clock

and bells are an iconic part of Southborough’s every day life and we

hope you can help us to get them fully operational.

We sincerely thank you for any help you can give us.

Rev. Ti Chase
