[Bell Historians] Kemberton

That was the approach John Baldwin and I used to take with online Dove.
Also that all the notes in the ring are shown relative to the key note of
the ring even if individual bells are out of tune or the ring is
"stretched".

Agree with both Richards. It would make sense to me if all rings were
described in keys with the fewest sharps/flats.

This policy makes sense for single bells, but I agree with 
Richard that it's daft for rings.  It's not being applied 
properly, anyway.  Why aren't York Minister, Exeter 
Cathedral and Southwark Cathedral listed as A#?  Is it 
perhaps because they wouldn't put up with this nonsense?
