It is indeed a fantastic instrument. I used to play it for assembly most days when it was still a Grammar School. It has a bright crisp sound, a magnificent full organ and the hall has about a 3 second resonance. It has open wooden panelling around the sides and this lets the sound flood out. A sound worthy of any cathedral. I can't believe it could be destroyed. The blower is under the floor of the main hall entrance accessed through a lift-off trap door. It used to trip out every now and again and I would have to get the lifting keys from the caretaker to get down to re-set it. There are passageways under the hall corridors with graffiti on the walls from firewatchers in the war. Typical that the authorities have no consideration for the heritage in their care; just rip it out and destroy it. Progress!!!
