While searching for seasonally festive methods to ring, I have been looking at
Nowell Place Doubles:
<http://ringing.org/main/pages/method?match=nowell&name-query=Search>
Melvyn Hiller's collection gives a Shipway Bob as the call, but I can't get a
120. Can anyone help, please?
The CC method collection gives a Ringing World reference of 66/167, which also
covers Jack a Napes Bob Doubles; were these originally rung spliced? My
collection of Ringing Worlds doesn't go back that far.
Some of the other non-palindromic methods have been named in recent years by
Paul Mason; I think most of these were rung in multi-extent blocks. Was that
how Nowell was rung?
But Hiller also gives variations of Nowell, like Snowdrop (using a Wallflower
Single). Again, I can't find any 120s, but presumably these must have been rung
as 120s, due to Decision (E)A.3(c)?
