I too have a list at home, although it's not quite up to date, and 
from what I remember there are only 4 or 5 rings that are still 
classified as "minor". This is because I do not know what the 
apparent relationship of the "tuning" (or lack of it!) of the bells 
to each other is. Blisland, Cornwall is one that springs to mind. All 
the other rings are at least described, whether rightly or wrongly, 
as x to y of n or somesuch.

I will have a look at this when I get home.
