Updated through online information from William Dunklin. -- The Hook organ originally was installed in a rear balcony. A major church remodeling in 1912 included moving the organ from the rear balcony to a position behind the lectern.

Reconstruction of an earlier instrument - probably their 1858 Hook Op. 236. Some pipework was used in their later organ, a rebuilt 1910 Ernest M. Skinner organ moved here in 1952 and rebuilt by Skinner under Carl Bassett.
Database Manager on February 28th, 2005:
Identified from company publications as edited and expanded in The Hook Opus List 1829-1935, ed. William T. Van Pelt (Organ Historical Society, 1991).
