Stephen St Denis on February 5th, 2023:
The pipe organ was built in 1875 by Boston organ builder George H. Ryder. The organ was installed in the Methodist Episcopal Church in Byfield Village, Massachusetts (Newbury). In 1902 the church relocated the 1875 Ryder instrument into the church’s new building which was built on the same site as the first church building. In 2015 the organ was acquired by the Manchester, NH. Lawrence family, and with the assistance of several staff members of the Andover Organ Co., was carefully relocated to the atrium of an office and retail building in downtown Manchester. The organ is in good playing condition and is occasionally played. The organ is a one manual and pedal instrument with slider wind chest. The organ has five ranks totaling 245 pipes.
