The organ was built in 1954 replace a 3 manual Walker instrument which had been destroyed on 29th December 1940 during a world war two bombing raid. The organ is enclosed in two chambers at the rear of the church concealed by an ornamental grille and played from a 3 manual drawstop console located in the rear gallery underneath the chambers.
When first built, the organ consisted of six ranks of pipes but in 1957, following a bequest from Miss Irene van Raalte, the following ranks were added by Compton: Hautboy, Stopped Flute, Vox Angelica. The original action was replaced in 1991 by a solid state system but otherwise the organ remains as it did in 1957 and is a superb illustration of a small-medium instrument by the John Compton Organ Company Ltd.
