First peal and first attempt: 1.
First peal in the method: 3, 5 and 6.
First peal away from the treble: 3.
This peal was specially arranged to enable the first 'all-local' peal to be rung on the bells; and it is believed to be the first peal of Major to be rung for the Wirral Branch of the Chester Guild by a band all of whom are members of one and the same local company.
