Newark Christ Church

Organ

Organ Plaques

The organ, originally donated by Mrs Frances Hall to the old church in 1880, was rebuilt, enlarged and provided with a new console by Cousans of Lincoln in 1958.

Brass plaques relating to the two organs in the old church in Lombard Street have been transferred to the new church. The text on them reads:
