DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
The organ was rebuilt in 1968 by the C. V. Barden Company. This work included a new Great division and a new console. Further rebuilding by Barden occurred in the 1970's. The instrument was replaced in 2004 by a new Wicks Pipe Organ, but seven Austin ranks were reused in the new organ.
