The organ was originally built by Harrison and Harrison of Durham in 1907 as a 3 manual instrument situated in a chamber on the north side of the chancel.

In 1955 the organ was rebuilt by Compton and moved to its present location in the north transept. A new detached drawstop console was provided on the south side of the chancel. As part of the rebuild, an enclosed solo division was added with the addition of new stops including Tuba, Cor Anglais and Clarinet.

In 2000 the organ was restored by Nicholson's of Malvern, Worcestershire.

As a Compton organ enthusiast it is a delight to see that the console remains original including flat head drawstops, thumb pistons and swell pedal indicators.
