The longest peal ever rung in this method.
Umpires’ report: The bells went into changes at 10:24am and a consistent pace was soon established. All calls and course-ends were checked throughout. Shortly after 1pm the pace quickened, but the standard of striking was maintained. There were very few errors and those that did occur were quickly corrected. Congratulations go to the ladies who rang the front bells excellently.
Umpires: Richard B Grimmett, David Edwards, Ruth Hawkins
