This organ is curiously constructed, the choir organ being
made in part to serve for the fundamental parts of the great
organ by means of a communication [coupler] between the two
rows of keys; the great organ pressing down the keys of the
choir, and the choir left to act for itself. This organ was
built by Mr. Holland, of London, in the year 1791, and in
point of tone ranks very high. The height is about 22 feet,
width 13 feet, and depth 9 feet. Compass F in alt to GG.
