The final quarter peal in a series of five, rung between August 2023 and January 2024, to allow Graeme to achieve his goal of ringing a quarter of Cambridge inside before his return to work next week. Graeme rang his first quarter peal of Minor as part of this series in August last year, which was the first quarter he rang inside in 25 years. Well done Graeme!
Chris Jenkins is to be associated with this quarter peal, having been prevented from ringing by ill health; thanks to Angie for standing in at short notice.
