For many years the organ was maintained and tuned by Henry Willis, and more recently it has been tuned and maintained every three months by Dennis Aldis, a now retired organ builder who worked for Henry Lewis.

 

We have a complete log book of all work and attention to the Organ. 


The church seeks primarily a good home for the organ.

 

Enquiries, offers and expressions of interest are invited. The organ is immediately available.

 

Buyer makes all arrangements for dismantling, packing and transport.

 

The Organ was completely overhauled, cleaned, tuned and rebuilt by Aldis in 1996 during a period of church decoration.
