Holywood, St Philip & St James’

2024: rebuild & re-ordering the Walker organ, 3 manuals, 59 stops

Organ rebuilt using our direct-electric modules, wind regulators installed, re-arranged internally, the Walker console refurbished by Renatus of Bideford. We are grateful to Jim and Stephen of Wells Kennedy for all their help, support and friendship throughout the project, and look forward to working with them again in the near the future, at Eglantine.

An excellent booklet, written by Paul Hale, on the history of the organ at Holywood PC has been produced, and is available to purchase from the Church at a cost of £5 per copy (incl P&P) https://holywood-parish-church.sumupstore.com/
