Organ
The organ at St Mary’s remains the principal instrument in leading worship week by week. It was originally built in 1920, and the building was extended to make room for the bellows on the north side of the chancel. It was given to the Church by the WH & E Vernon of Bohun Lodge, and dedicated in memory of their son WILLIAM HAMO VERNON, a Lieutent in the London Regiment who had been killed in action in France on 7th October, 1916. The organ was dedicated on Christmas Day, 1920.
As well as accompanying the singing in worship, the organ is used for concerts and recitals throughout the year. Please see the Recent Posts section of this website for more information.
