Further information

Original action was mechanical, the tubular pneumatic action
has recently been overhauled and is very quiet, fast (!)
and feels almost like a tracker action, it is so good. The
original compass was : Great Bottom GG - ? Swell Middle F-?
The original manuals are displayed by the side of the organ.
Where stops are marked 'H ' these indicates that the pipe
work is William Hill original.
The 'prepared for' stops are now unlikely to be installed."
