Dear John

Thank you for your interest, both are still available, there has been interest and I am feeling hopeful. I have sent you a pm with pictures.


I'm  grateful for the help and support this forum has brought and I will post here when they go.

I need to find a good home for 2 organs that belonged to my late father. The chamber organ is 18th century built in Bristol and was restored early 19th Century and again by my father in 1980s. The House organ was his own work, 2 manual and pedalboard. Both will need to be moved from the house in coming months. The organs are in Gloucestershire.

As I know very little about them I am unsure of best way to reach possible buyers. Clearly ebay is rather limited as these need to be heard and played and taking on an organ is something of a commitment. A good home is more important to us than price. I'd be very grateful for any advice.
