To mark the centenary of the first peal on the bells since being augmented to six. The 1924 peal was conducted by James P. Hyett, great grandfather of Andrew J. Watkins (C).

The final variation (131c) in this peal was first named ‘Clifford Pleasure’, and rung at Clifford, Hfds, on March 18, 1938 (RW 1408.0178), but at some point, its name was changed to ‘Clifford’s Pleasure’.
