Builder: Hill, Norman & Beard, London, 1974
Restored: Wells-Kennedy Partnership Ltd, Lisburn, 1997

This organ was the last one to be built in the London workshops of Hill, Norman & Beard before the move to Thaxted. The tonal finishing was by Michael Buttolph.

In November 1995 the church was gutted by fire completely destroying the roof. The organ amazingly survived with only water and smoke damage due to its position underneath the tower at the west end. It was dismantled by Wells-Kennedy Partnership Ltd, subsequently restored, and reinstated for the reopening service in October 1997.
