Console
Console type attached Stop type drawstop Pedalboard flat parallel
angled jambs; Swell stops arranged in unusual order:- "the Keraulophon and
Vox Celeste are adjacent, suggesting that they are the “strings”,
while the Viol is at the head of the column, above the Principal,
suggesting that it may be a keenly-voiced flue intended to be use
as a pseudo-reed; (CMe);

Further information
$ The 2 pedal stops are the same pipes and sound identical; evidently,
the Soft Bass was to have had wind cut but this is no longer in order;
