Prior Park College, Bath
 

This instrument was built in 1984 for Westfield College, London University. When the campus closed for amalgamation with another, the chapel became redundant. The hunt was on to find a new home for this organ.

We could not have wished for a more splendid location than the spectacular chapel of Prior Park College. This is not only used for school services, but it is the Parish Church for the district and also used as a concert venue.

The pedal department was enlarged from 1 stop to 5, necessitating a new action, chest and case set behind the mahogany towers of the Great Organ casework.

The Great organ was revoiced for this vibrant acoustic and enlarged by increasing the scaling of the Principals 8’ and 4’ and by adding a Bourdon 16ft and Flute 4ft.
