Notes

2005-11-24 - Identified from the Reuter Opus List, provided by Chris Leaver, Reuter Organ Co., November, 2005. -Database Manager

2013-10-09 - Updated through online information from Richard C Greene. -Database Manager

2017-07-20 - Updated by Benjamin K. Hoskins, who maintains the organ. <br> <br>The present 1953 Reuter organ retained several ranks from the 1905 Henry Pilcher's Sons Op. 490. While the organ is currently situated in a center chamber, the previous organ stood in an organ bay on the east side of the chancel where the console now sits. Further additions/alterations occurred at a later unknown time by an unknown builder, with some pipework replaced and new ranks added. -Database Manager
