Church organ in St Laurence's church, Shotteswell.
"The Organ, was built by Telford & Telford and installed in 1890. It has since been fitted with a Discuss blower, although it still may be pumped by hand.
To celebrate the Millennium the organ was refurbished and restored, in 2005 a further 2ft stop was lilted and restoration of the keyboard took place. This was made by possible by two very generous parishioners who shared a deep love of music and the Millennium fund, which came from other residents of the parish. A plaque fitted inside the organ gives details of the restoration."
