Notes

2007-10-05 - Identified through online information from Stephen Hall. -- Rebuild of 1978/1980 Charles Ross organ, which contained pipe work from two vintage Skinner instruments (Opus 221 and Opus 452). New consoles (main 4 manual in gallery and remote 2 manual in chancel), new case work, additional ranks, mechanical restoration/replacements and tonal finishing by Kegg. Organ is in regular use for services and recitals (2007). -Database Manager
