[r-t] 41 Surprise Minor quarter

[Alexander Holroyd]

It seems that this is the answer to a different question (the shortest 
multi-extent block).  A quarter peal is usually allowed to have some rows 
once and others twice, which gives considerably more flexibility.  I'm no 
expert, but I should think one could fit more than 23m into a quarter...
