The Hanger Hill estate in Ealing is one of those 1930s "garden suburbs" and contains much interesting architecture. John Compton himself lived on this estate.
The organ here dates back to 1947 and is one of the few remaining "347" models and was the flagship of the Compton electrone range. The organ works on the electrostatic principal and uses 12 rotating generators contained in an external cabinet which is located in a room just behind the console. Two large loudspeakers are situated each side of the communion area. The specification reads:
