Organ:
The present organ was built in 1882 by Hill & Son of London for the Newtown Congregational Church. With two manuals, 15 speaking stops, 3 couplers and mechanical action throughout, the organ was provided with three composition pedals, a hitch-down swell pedal and a parallel and concave pedalboard based on the “College of Organists” model. The organ was housed in a stained and varnished pitch pine case with diapered façade pipes.
