Clapham Raises Funds For Old Tower ~ The Tower Bond

Clapham parish church is dedicated to St.James. Its tower may date back to 1160AD, the date of the first record of a priest attached to this church. In recent months local people have been working hard to raise more than £80,000 to pay for modernisation and improvements in the ancient tower - a toilet and small kitchen for parish events, electical winding for the 19th. century tower clock, three additional church bells, a new safer frame to hold all six bells and two new floors to replace the old unsafe structures.

One of the ways in which this money is being raised is by selling £15 Tower Bonds. Each Bond gives the holder entry in the monthly draw for a year. Below are the winning numbers which have been drawn so far, up to and including September 2009.

Anyone wishing to buy a Tower Bond and enter the draw should contact Ron Wilson, Station House, Clapham Station, Clapham, North Yorks. LA2 8ES, tel: 015242 51104or David Parry, Tower Captain, tel: 015242 51132 ~ Read about the Tower Appeal
