In 1874 bouwde de firma Brindley & Foster een orgel voor de kapel van het Instian Civil Engineering College in Comper's Hill, Surrey. Na sluiting van de school is het orgel in 1907 door J. Porritt verbouwd en overgeplaatst naar Saint Andrew's Church in Clifton Campville. Het instrument is in 1975 door William Hawkins verbouwd en uitgebreid. Daarbij gebruikte hij materiaal van het orgel van de Congregational Church in Yarmouth.
