Following the visit of the Mayor of Wimborne and the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Dorset to the Parish Eucharist in the morning, a peal of 5070 changes of Stedman Caters was successfully rung on the Minster Bells during the afternoon to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen’s Accession to the throne. The intended peal of Stedman Cinques was sunk at the final moment by two members of the band contracting Covid, but the peal sounded as the bells would have been heard 70 years ago to a composition specially composed for a Platinum Anniversary.
