Brian Mountjoy Commemorative Peal
A peal attempt is being held this Sunday 11th August at 3pm at St. John the Baptist, Glastonbury, to commemorate Brian V Mountjoy, past Tower Captain at St. John's, 2011 - 2023. The method will be Grandsire Triples, Brian's favourite, and we're very grateful to Sam Shead, Tower Captain at Wells Cathedral for arranging the visiting band. Brian rang 1340 peals, conducting 540. He rang 728 for the Bath & Wells Association alone during his ringing career - an amazing achievement!
The peal of Grandsire Triples at St. John's, Glastonbury on Sunday 11th August in memory of Brian Mountjoy was successful. Thanks go to all those involved, and it was wonderful to hear the bells filling the High Street for three hours – the first time in 11 years! Gill Mountjoy was so appreciative that we finally made it to honour Brian in this way.
