"The organ, made for All Saints' church, Wigston Magna c.1845, was brought to Sproxton between 1882 and 1884, and restored in 1984. It may be an early example of the work of the builder Holdich.

For a one-manual instrument it has a remarkably large specification which ranges from a 16 ft. Double Diapason to a 1 ft. Tierce and 3-rank Mixture and Trumpet."
