Winster lost parish records

The parish records for Winster are missing between 1742 and 1752 (burnt in a fire apparently). Does anyone know if the Bishops transcripts for these years survive?

Thanks for that BumbleB, unfortunately i found out the hard way in the past that stated ranges of years covered by BT's can include gaps. I'm hoping someone has personal experience of looking at the Winster BT's to know if these years are present.

Thanks. Sadly, it does look like the years missing from the PRs are also missing from the BTs.
