The organ at Saint Magnus' Cathedral in Kirkwall was built by Henry Willis & Sons in 1925. The organ has no visible front, but is enclosed by a beautiful carved screen, designed by George Mackie Watson. The organ was renovated by Willis in 1971. The Choir Organ was changed to a Positif, and the console was turned a quarter turn. In 2001 the organ was equipped with a modern combination system.
