Reason for status change (if applicable/optional)
New reference found by chance, when looking for something else, would never have been found otherwise SN 27 June 2019.

Probably originally sent in in 2011 when I visited and took the photo. J Hendry. John Hendry would never have found the Church Vestry book which is the reference recently found when looking for details of the Musgrave bell (not a war memorial and a largely forgotten part of the history of the church) SN
