29th June 2011
Long time Muffin member Jim Batt sadly died on the 29th June 2011. Jim’s generosity and willing
help will be much missed in the Club and in the wider Battle Community. Battle Bellringers paid their own tribute to Jim with a Quarter
Peal in his memory on the 17th July - as photographed here with Jim Batt in insert. Battle Bellringers have recently been given
£250.00 by Battle Muffins for the refurbishment of the Bell Ringing Chamber.
