The organ standing on the west end gallery is a rebuild, with additions, of a single-manual William Hill instrument of 1867 which itself had been rebuilt as a two-manual instrument in 1898. The enlarged Hill organ occupied the north-west corner of the nave, where it had apparently been put in 1898 pending the construction of an organ chamber through the north wall of the chancel. The chamber was never built and after 95 years the Hill organ was in urgent need of major repair and overhaul. At this point it was decided both to enhance the instrument's hitherto modest tonal range and to release badly-needed space at ground level by rebuilding it on a gallery. The rebuild, by Roger Pulham of Charsfleld, Suffolk, is in two stages.
