The organ is in good working order and was used every Sunday until the end of August 2011.

 

It has been looked after by Brian Brighton, an ex-Nelson apprentice.

 

The instrument needs cleaning, but it gives a good account of itself with singing 8’ & 4’ Diapasons for leading congregational singing, and useful Flutes and Gamba.

 

The church is now closed and the building will be sold. The organ is immediately available.
