p.s. in the past when central heating wasn't common, how did Harpsichords not break strings and stay in tune?

If I had to guess, I'd say that the Nave organ would be installed before the Quire organ is reconstructed. But again, I could be wrong. What if they want to base the Nave organ on the reconstructed Quire organ?
I should have thought that the opposite would be the case. I still cannot imagine where a Nave organ would be placed - unless Klais produce another of their 'hanging' instruments (c.f. Cologne Cathedral Nave organ).

Thank you kind sir!
By the way, I see you are a Manc. I live in St Helens, not too far (but far enough ;)) from Scouseland. It's a strange place, St Helens. Everyone east of the M6 thinks we're Scousers, and Scousers think we're Wiganers (the ultimate insult!)
Best wishes,
Paul.

Hi
Very good questions. I suspect that very few are really used regularly - the notable exceptions being Birmingham, Leeds, St George's Hall, Liverpool & West Bromwich - and probably a couple of others. (These are ones I've seen recent mention of).
Not a Town Hall organ, but the closest we used to have in Bradford is St George's Hall - I gather the organ is long derelict and hasn#t been used for many years - and there's no hope, even before the current crisis, of a restoration and use.
Every Blessing
Tony
