ECG Peals

We are starting to put together a complete list of all the peals ever rung for the ECG. All the peals up to the end of 2005 are now written up in the peal book, which has brought us to the end of the current book. The peals since then are being written in a new book.

With the 50th peal under our belts we thought we should do something to show off! David has done some statistics about the peals which you can see below. We also hope to get all the peals into a form that can be displayed on this site in due course... watch this space!
