An old chestnut, I know.
But, on a long journey back from ringing in Wales, Bill H -
Llanfeugan are a "Premier League" ring of 8, Taylors 1921(?) if
memory serves me right, record them just in case - superb!
What is
a) the oldest bell in a ringing peal
b) the oldest ring - Smithfield was the one that came to mind
c) the oldest ringable ring on contemporary fittings
Any offers?
Let's start with Ashow for c) early C18 - though the wheels look
younger admittedly
