The Church Charity was founded in 1896, but there was already a “clock lands” charity which received income from harvesting reeds at Clock Holt, on the River Rhee between Haslingfield and Harston. The Church Charity provides funds for the maintenance and repair of the Parish Church of Haslingfield, excluding the Chancel, but including the Church Clock.
The Charity was recently pleased have provided a sum to correct the timing of the church clock - it now tolls at the correct times!
