In 1993/1994 bouwde William Drake een nieuw orgel voor Jesus College in Oxford. Het orgel is ontworpen in klassiek engelse stijl met een historiserende orgelkas met houtsnijwerk van de hand van Keith Mallinson. Adviseur bij de bouw was John Budgen. Het oude orgel van de kapel, gebouwd door Binns in 1899, werd overgeplaatst naar de kerk van Saint Michael and All Angels in New Marston.
