Over the year it is hoped to ring at least 125 quarter peals
dedicated to the Association's anniversary celebrations. Within
that ringing we would like to see at least 125 people involved,
and quarters rung at as many North Staffs Association towers as
possible. Quarters were arranged for the day of the 2006 AGM to
launch the celebrations and 2007 Quarter Peal Week will play a
major part in achieving our goals. Local bands are encouraged to
arrange their own quarter peals, and support for this, as well as
specifically arranged ringing, will be managed by the committee
officers.
Would you like to ring a quarter peal? If so then feel
free to arrange a quarter locally within your band. To request
helpers for your quarter, or to be included in a quarter
elsewhere, please e-mail the ringing master on
.
The following quarter peals, in date order, have been
dedicated to the 125th Anniversary of The Association. Corrections and further submissions should be e-mailed to
.
Details of our Anniversary Quarter Peals have also been added
to the North Staffs Peal Database. To access the peals database
