  • The organ in the Church of Saint Just-in-Roseland was originally built for the Church of Saint John the Evangelist in Treslothan. The year of construction and the maker are unknown. It is attributed to the company Heard & Sons. In 1958 the organ was transferred by Hele & Co. to Saint Just. The organ at that time had seven registers on two manuals and pedal. In 1966 it was expanded by Hele to eleven stops.
  • The organ was converted and expanded in 1997 by Lance Foy. A new electric console was installed. The pedal reeds are transmissions from the manuals.
