Sadly they have started the demolition of this building, as far as I am aware the large Compton extension organ was not removed which is a pity.

It is listed on NPOR under Walworth Castle, they say the builder was Gray and Davison, although there is some uncertainty about this.

I know of one organ that the DOA had said it must be kept and has been removed I assume without a faculty as I cannot see the DOA reversing his decision.
