Lookup Information About a Method

To lookup a method by name, type it, including its stage and, if known, class, into the following. For example, "Cambridge Surprise Major". Then click "Search".

To print information about a possibly unrung method based on its place notation select the stage below and type it's place notation into the box. For methods with conventional symmetry and a single change across the lead end you need only type the first half-lead and supply the lead-end in the box labeled "lead end". Otherwise supply a whole lead's worth of place notation and leave the "lead end" box empty. Then click "Display".

For stages above maximus the places in the place notation are A, B, C and D, for 13, 14, 15 and 16, respectively. A cross may be indicated by 'x' or '-'. Leading or lying places may be omitted when they can be unambiguously deduced from the context.

When displaying a method from its place notation an attempt is made to determine if this method has been previously named. Pleae note that this is not foolproof. For example, it does not take into account rotations of methods, and thus would not detect that New Grandsire is considered by the CCCBR Decisions to be the same method as Grandsire. Another possible source of failure would be if a method name publication follows the last time the underlying data was updated.

The data underlying this web page are derived from Martin Bright and Richard Smith's database at http://methods.ringing.org. That is in turn derived from the data maintained by the CCCBR Methods Committee at http://methods.org.uk. The data are typically updated weekly.
