St Michael's Peal Records

Over many years, Canon K W H Felstead put together the most complete set of tower bell peal records in existence. The records consist of one or more handwritten 8" by 5" cards for each tower where at least one peal has been rung, and are considerably less detailed than the peal reports published in the Ringing World as they consist of only the date and the method(s) of each peal.

Canon Felstead bequeathed his peal records to the Central Council of Church Bell Ringers. Since Canon Felstead's death the records have been meticulously maintained by David Dearnley.
