The tonal specification was drawn up by Iain Stinson in consultation
with staff at Phoenix Organs. Dave Bostock of Phoenix Organs
installed and finished the organ on-site. The console was built by Renatus
of Bideford Devon to a design developed specially for Phoenix.
The organ was installed in May 2001 and is sited in the study (size
approximately 15' x 11' x 8' high).
