On Sunday afternoon, 10th November a team of six ringers from the Lichfield and Walsall Archdeaconry Society of Change-Ringers successfully completed the FIRST FULL PEAL to be rung on Colton's Bells. Prior to the installation of the 2 millennium bells it was impossible to do serious change-ringing on just 4 bells.
In a Full Peal there are 5,040 changes and they were rung in 7 surprise minor methods.
The whole ring took 2 hours and 38 minutes -------
----- and in
change ringing there can not be any break!
