Baughurst Surprise Minor: 34-3.4.2-2.3.2-2.5 lh 2 TDMM 15865
This method was sent to me by Keith Walpole as unnamed method that he named Ramsdell Surprise Minor. This could not be used as there is already a Surprise Royal method with this name, so Baughurst was substituted, another tower with which Keith was closely associated.
Rung in Keith's memory by the band with which he rang many multi-Surprise Minor, with Richard replacing Angela who was suffering with a bad back. R.I.P.
25th peal on the bells: 2.
This peal named a new method or variation.
