This Church Organ can be found in Trinity URC on Waterloo Road in the town of Ramsey.

This Church Organ is a comprehensive 2-manual and pedal instrument which was built by Alexander Young in 1911. The instrument together with the altar and pulpit dominate the front of the building. The instruments case is of a simple design.

The Culture Vannin website describes the organ the describes the display pipes as "silver-painted...in 3 flats...a virtually massive block with commendable use of finely-graduated French mouths."

The organ's key and stop action is mechanical, with pneumatic pedals.

The case is of pitch-pine which has been well crafted and has a rich grin pattern and surface finish which contrast markedly with the almost complete lack of any other ornamentation.
