The organ was originally built in 1906 by Norman and Beard where it replaced an earlier instrument by Hill.
In 1962 the organ was rebuilt by the Compton which included a new console, electric action and extension of the pedal division. At this time, Compton were focusing their efforts on electronic organ production and so this instrument is a good example of the type of work that the company were undertaking in their last few years of pipe organ work.
