In a Facebook exchange between Ed Copeland and myself on June 5, 2019, he related, \"[the] pedal board is \"reverse radiating\" (wider at the back than the front) and is flat.

NOTES
The organ is free-standing and encased in the front, right corner of the sanctuary. It
has two stenciled façades each containing 17 pipes, and intersecting at a corner tower
of 3 pipes for a total of 37 pipes en façade. One faces across the chancel, and the other
over the keydesk faces into the sanctuary. The keydesk is attached and projecting with a
lid that lifts to form a music rack. Stops are as drawknobs in terraced jambs on either
side of the manuals, and the couplers are as drawknobs over the Swell keys. The pedalboard
is reverse radiating (wider at the rear than the front) and flat. The manual key action is
tracker, but the pedal action is tubular-pneumatic. The Tremolo has been disconnected at
some point in the past.
