From the announcement in the October 1968 issue of THE DIAPASON: The instrument will be installed on the gospel side of the chancel and will speak into both the nave and the chancel. It will be unobstructed by chamber walls or heavy pipe facades in the new location. The Great will be installed in the nave proper. Many pipes from the present instrument will be tonally rebuilt and revoiced on low pressure. All voicing will be open-toe with no nicking.
The church closed in November 1994 and the building sold to the Cathedral of the Theotokos of Great Grace, an Italo-Greek Orthodox congregation. The building eventually fell into disrepair and, by 2020, was in a severely derelict condition.
The original builder was J. G. Marklove (c. 1870, Opus93).
Pipework from the Marklove of c. 1870 incorporated. Moved to Spring Gardens Moravian, St. John's Antigua, West Indies via OCH c. 1996. Installed there by Columbia Organ Works.
