The organ was cleaned in the 1960’s and the Greta Mixture remodelled with proper breaks, given bold treatment to match the increased resonance in the church following re-decoration. In 1994 Martin Cross replaced the console and replaced the under action with direct electric primaries and solid state combinations. He also remodelled the Swell mixture with proper breaks.
