Thanks to The National Lottery Heritage Fund who granted the Town Council monies to rectify the clock’s striking mechanism.
I think all the town can once again hear the quarter strikes and hourly chimes. The residents can once again set their watches by Bishop’s Castle time and never be late for appointments
The National Lottery Heritage Fund
The National Lottery Heritage Fund is the largest funder for the UK’s heritage. Using money raised by National Lottery players we support projects that connect people and communities to heritage.
Our vision is for heritage to be valued, cared for and sustained for everyone, now and in the
future. From historic buildings, our industrial legacy and the natural environment, to collections, traditions, stories and more.
Heritage can be anything from the past that people value and want to pass on to future generations. We believe in the power of heritage to ignite the imagination, offer joy and inspiration, and to build pride in place and connection to the past
