On Saturday in last week a peal of Stedman Triples 5040 changes was rung on the bells of the Parish Church in three hours and seven minutes.
According to records, only one peal has ever been rung on these bells, and this was scored over 180 years ago by a local band of ringers. The band on this 18th ult. were all visitors to the parish, and the conductor is a well-known London ringer of St Paul's Cathedtal.
The band was composed as follows:
C.F. Winney (London), conductor, treble; F.W. Richardson (Brockley), 2; B. Patmore (Great Munden), 3; G.Gray (Hertford), 4; S. Carter (Lt. Munden), 5; G. Dawson (Leytonstone), 6; W.H. Lawrence (Lt. Munden), 7; G.H. Carter (Lt. Munden), tenor.
