Rung for the Dorothy L Sayers Society in gratitude for all their support in the recent restoration of Huntsham bells. This tower was the local tower of Charles Troyte, Esq., of Huntsham Court, whose book on change ringing was the inspiration that led Dorothy Sayers to write "The Nine Tailors."
The method and composition used for this peal was the same as was rung for the second peal, and first peal of Major, on the original 8 bells of Huntsham and is recorded in Troyte's book.
