On Wednesday 19 August a Full Peale of Grandsire Triples (written 300 years ago by John Carter)rang out for three hours to say thank yu to four ringers heading off to university, an apprenticeship and the armed forces.

This was a special event and more so as the last time a Full Peale was rung by St Peter's Ringers was 1937.

Mike Waddington found out more from Brian, Kath, Nick, Fran (the conductor this night) and Reverend Will Hughes.
