Bâti par: Nigel Church (1980)


The United Reformed Church in Aston Tirrold was built in 1728. There has been a two-manual harmonium in the church for a long time. In 1978, planning began for the construction of a pipe organ by Nigel Church. Emil Godfrey was involved in the design as an architect, so that the organ would fit into the historic church. Consultant was John Rowntree from Newbury, who designed the organ case in collaboration with Godfrey. The organ was built with one manual and attached pedal. It was dedicated on November 30, 1980. Carolyn Brook played the inauguration concert.
