Nice specification but the case doesn't quite 'go' - for me anyway

Hi

I agree, Victor, the case makes it look like a 1970's extension job.  If the piework and voicing are OK then it would be worth considering changing the case details.

There's a similar sort of beast in Stradishall Chuch, Suffolk.

A very odd machine with GGG compass and the stops worked by large rocking tablets which operate in reverse - you push the top of the tablet to bring the stop on.  It's obviously quite old but with a gormless case, presumably added in 1956 when it was installed here.
