The Church Organ

Specification

William Hill and Son: 1871 and 1889
Hill, Norman and Beard: 1937 and 1965
Last major overhaul (re-leathering, replacement of electrical parts, installation of solid state piston capture system, addition of some new pipework) Percy Daniel & Co.: 1995/6

The console is detached, having three manuals and concave/radiating pedalboard with stop tabs. It is adjacent to the Choir on the north side, with the organ case and pipe chamber in the north transept.
The separation distance is not great, and the organ is quite prompt. Witley is exceptionally lucky to have an organ of such size and quality, generally in good order.
