 It was said on the Facebook group that the front work is confusing because it all looks the same. That’s true – it does look the same in blue line terms – how do you remember which bit of 4ths and back you are in and hence when to stop? The clue unsurprisingly comes from the treble, and hence this is a good method for trying to see where the treble is and using it to make ringing the method easier. Half of the method is easily rung simply by knowing that whenever the treble is in places 5-8, one simply wrong hunts in places 1-4 and treble bob hunts in places 5-8. When the treble is in places 1-4, the blue line is very tame and identical to Cornwall. The transitions into and out of the wrong hunting on the front as the treble moves from 4 to 5 and vice versa are about as intuitive as they could possibly be.
-There are two methods that were considered for providing the ‘right place above, some wrong hunting below’ feature. Chesterfield is reasonably well known because it is in Stephen Chandler’s iconic and aspirational composition of 23 Spliced. It is Cambridge above for reduced cognitive load (and excitement), an e group method would be new for PPE, but not that special musically. The other method which almost made the main list was York. York fulfils the brief in terms of isolating the wrong hunting below with a right place above work, but given the front work is slightly more difficult than that of Kenninghall, and the backwork is new (but simple), it sits well as this week’s ‘try also’.

 For compositions of Kenninghall use any good composition of Cornwall. The music above the treble will be exactly the same, and most of the rows below the treble are the same.

+Those ringers fortunate to have the opportunity to ring more advanced methods on 10 and 12 will be used to the concept of ‘formulaic’ methods. Formulaic methods have structures which are very driven by the treble, particularly the above work, but often the work below the treble as well. Formulaic methods can be rung by sets of rules, so it is helpful to have an advanced awareness of structure and an ability to see where the treble is. Bristol becomes much more formulaic the more bells you ring it on, and very popular methods like Phobos and Zanussi are described as formulaic. This nature of methods makes them much easier to ring in practice than their blue lines might suggest.
