- Scotch College Memorial Hall werd gebouwd in de jaren 1920-1922. Het gebouw is in neogotische stijl ontworpen. In 1955 werd een eerste orgel in Scotch College Memorial Hall geplaatst. Het was een tweedehands orgel, gebouwd in 1949 voor Wellington College in Nieuw Zeeland door de firma Hill, Norman & Beard. Dit tweeklaviers orgel is in 2004 vervangen door een ander orgel van dezelfde firma. Dit werd in 1930 gebouwd voor de Presbyterian Assembly Hall aan Margaret Street in Sydney. Het is een drieklaviers orgel. Adviseur bij de bouw was George Faunce Allman. Het orgel is in 2004 gerestaureerd door de firma's Peter D.G. Jewkes Pty en de South Island Organ Company.
- Het orgel had in de originele locatie geen kas en geen zichtbaar front. Er is een nieuwe kas ontworpen die in stijl past bij het interieur van de hall. Het orgel is geplaatst aan de zijkant van de kapel met de speeltafel op de vloer. De console is overgenomen van een ander orgel van Hill, Norman & Beard, het orgel van Saint John's Church in Toorak uit 1961.
