"On Monday week, it being her Majesty's Birthday, a company of change ringers ascended the tower of St Mary's Rickinghall and rang a peal of Oxford Treble Bob and Grandsire Bob, consisting of 1869 changes (being the date of the year) in one hour and seven minutes. The peal was composed by J Morley"
"The ringers afterwards sat down to an excellent dinner at the White Horse Inn, where they spent the rest of the day in ringing several touches of Grandsire Triples on the hand bells"
