The peal is in six parts, and contains the 120 course-ends with the tenors together throughout, and is the longest peal ever rung in this method. This is the first peal rung by the members since the Birmingham Amalgamated Society and the Birmingham and District Association have been joined together. The ringers take this opportunity of thanking the Vicar and Churchwardens for their kindness in granting them the use of the bells and also to Mr. Bennett, Steeple-keeper, for getting everything in apple-pie order. *First peal in the method.
