M. Watcham lists several blank/prepared registers, one each on Great and Swell, two on Pedal. The writer in 'Musical Opinion' magazine in 1905 commented on the mellowness of the sound and the lack of bass. The organ stood on a gallery in the north transept; the stops were in two horizontal rows above the Swell manual.

This organ was removed in the mid-1980s, and replaced with a second-hand Lewis instrument.
