New Year Honour for Hackthorn Ringer
The London Gazette in a supplement announcing the New Year Honours
included the appointment of Mrs Bridget Cracroft-Eley, Lord-Lieutenant
for Lincolnshire, as a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (CVO).
Mrs Cracroft-Eley learned to ring prior to the installation of the ring of six bells at Hackthorn, and has enthusiastically supported bell ringing in the Central Branch of the Lincoln Diocesan Guild.
