The longest peal of Surprise on handbells.
We confirm that the peal was rung in accordance with the attached composition and that the standard of ringing was satisfactory throughout. The consistency of the ringing is perhaps best demonstrated by the fact that each block of 5040 took the same time, i.e. 2 hours 34 minutes.
Umpires: B Stedman Payne, Howell J Williams, A Mary Thompson.
