     3527486  Double Norwich Court Bob
     6482735  Double Norwich Court Bob
     5738264  Double Norwich Court Bob
     4263857  Double Norwich Court Bob
4ths 7864523  Bristol Surprise
6ths 6758423  Superlative Surprise
6ths 7862345  Bristol Surprise
4ths 6782345  

7 times

Contains the mega tittums course of Superlative Surprise.
6 of each type of 4-bell run (apart from those including the treble) at the front.
10 of each type of 4-bell run (apart from those including the treble) at the back.

Superlative Surprise may be replaced with its half-lead varient, Southgate Surprise, resulting in a contiguous-place-free composition. This would make the first part end 5678234, but the quarter peal contains all the same rows.

The first and last lead of Double Norwich Court Bob in each part may be replaced with Victoria Little Bob (&x4x3x6+1) for a 1288 with no reduction in the number of runs or wrap-arounds.

This composition in notated in the traditional format for Variable Treble Grandsire. The bell acting as the primary hunt bell is notated along with an index e.g. 15, this means the 1 is the treble, the index indicates how many times it leads before the next “treble” is called, here 5 times.
The single at the end of each course is after another whole lead of the 1 being the treble, the index here would be redundant, and cause confusion as there must be a whole lead before a single.
