Thanks to the Felstead Peals database we know the peals that have been performed by the bell ringers at Heanor since 1903. Heanor even has its own peal called "Heanor Surprise major" that was successfully rung by the ringers on 13 Dec 1986. We are trying to find information about who created the Heanor Surprise major and when.
