About the memorial: Copper Plaque on oak backboard.The memorial included Organ and Tower Repairs. NB- The substantial 1920 Organ work was to rebuild and enlarge the 1844 ‘Bishop of London’ organ, previously rebuilt in the West Gallery in 1866 by Jardine of Manchester. This work, again by Jardine, was to split the case into two above the choir (Swell, some Great and most pedal stops on the south side), Choir stops, most of the Great & some pedal on the north. The tracker action was replaced by electro-pnuematic and the console detached below the north side case. A full organ specification is available in the Church. Apart from minor changes the organ is still as per this rebuild.
