I rang on it on Sunday, it was tuned down a whole tone to fit the 
Charminster ring.

I was discussing Leighton Buzzard with Andrew Higson the other day, 
he thinks they are overtuned. This would not turn them into a WBF-
like ring, though, unless Taylors cast them to different profiles 
which somehow I doubt. The only point is the accuracy of tuning of 
the individual partials which I, like Andrew, think is quite 
irrelevant.
