A "Ring of bells" (or "peal of bells") is a set of bells hung in the full-circle English style, which was invented in the 17th century to give control over the speed of striking of each bell. This feature soon led to the development of change ringing. The vast majority of "rings" are in church towers in the Anglican church in England. A ring can be three to sixteen bells, though six and eight bell towers are the most common. They are tuned to the notes of a diatonic scale.
