I have a feeling that several there are several peal boards at Dublin listing peals rung on the front or 'minor' twelve (using the 11th as the tenor).

A great many were rung on the front eight (tenor 15-1-23), one on the “middle eight” (tenor 20-3-23) and four on the front ten (also 20-3-23). The same applies to the peal records of several other towers, e.g. Redcliffe, Mancroft, Worcester, Dublin, Exeter, Leeds, Sheffield etc.
