"The organ was built by Roger Pulham of Charsfield, Suffolk, in 1997 (the Great) and 2003-4 (the Chair). It is largely a rebuild of a floor-mounted Hill organ of 1868 (enlarged 1897), many pipes of which were included in the new instrument.
The design and scaling of the new pipes follow the patterns of the Hill work; the action is mechanical throughout."
