Yes.  (Well, the Southwark Cathedral ringers' website gives 
him as Henry C Miles, not G, but I'm sure it's same person. 
His middle initial is G in Morris' 'History & Art'.)

Sorry, carelessness on my part.  Yes, I did indeed mean 
1923.

[snip composition]

Three hours of tittums, two hours of handstrokes, another 
three hours of tittums, and a few courses of handstrokes to 
bring it round.  I don't know whether I could stand the 
excitement!

I guess the full version (the 15051) ended with another 22 
course block of handstrokes -- quite probably called exactly 
the same as the first block of handstrokes, but with a 
different turning course at 'd'.
