DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified through online information from Andrew Henderson [November 26, 2025]. Further verified from the Hutchings opus list as published in the Boston Organ Club Newsletter Fall1981-Fall 1982, page 20.
Notes with the Boston Organ Club Newsletter listing state, "Replaced by a three-manual Aeolian-Skinner, Opus 1230, 1953 containing Hutchings pipework." However, a new Austin (Opus 136) was installed in 1905, and modified/enlarged by Austin in 1914-15 before the Aeolian-Skinner work.
