Langford St Bartholomew

Organ

The organ, from Swinderby Methodist Church, was installed in 1998. On its right hand side can be seen the lever for the bellows, which has been replaced by an electrical mechanism.

The organ was built by Ernest Walklet of East Didbury, Manchester, in the late 19th century. Priestly (1993) has documented its history:
