For a new method to be named, it has to be rung to a full peal.
At St Andrew’s we named a new method ‘Hornchurch Surprise Major’ after ringing it to a peal on Christmas Eve 1996.
On Saturday 8th October 2016, a new method (Vennington Alliance Royal) was rung and named by a visiting peal band from the Nottingham area:
