To mark the centenary of the end of the Great War with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on this day in 1919.
As well as remembering the 38 men & boys from this village who did not return home and made the ultimate sacrifice, today we also remember all those who survived in the conflict and were able to return home to their families.
Today’s peal especially remembers Edward Lintin & Amos Ingall, both ringers at this Church who enlisted and went off to fight in the Great War and who both survived and returned home!
Lance Sergeant Amos Ingall served with the 2nd Battalion of the Lincolnshire Regiment and was badly wounded twice in the leg on the first day of the Battle of the Somme. Amos survived but was medically discharged due to his wounds and spent the rest of his life in Branston where he was a loyal member of the local band – ringing over 40 peals on Branston bells, and lived until 1983 aged 94.
"Ring out the thousand wars of old, Ring in the thousand years of peace."
This performance is linked to the event Lincolnshire Association — Centenary of the End of the Great War
