St Mary's Organ
The pipe organ in St Mary’s Church was built in 1880 by the notable English firm of Henry Willis and Sons. It was installed in the Church in 1881. When first installed, the organ stood on the floor of the Church at the west end and blocked the west door. Major alterations to the organ took place in 1933, and again in 1959, which was when the pipe work was placed in the raised gallery as it stands today, with the detached console located on the north aisle. The present cedar drawstop console was supplied in 1996 by Ian Brown and Associates.
The organ contains some 944 pipes, made of either wood or metal. They range in length rom 16 feet to approximately one inch.
