Het orgel in Saint Michael's Church, Cornhill in Londen is gebouwd in 1925/1926 door Rushworth & Dreaper. Dezelfde firma restaureerde en wijzigde het instrument in 1960, 1975 en in 1995. Bij de bouw werd veel materiaal overgenomen uit het vorige orgel van de kerk, dat door Joseph Robson werd gebouwd in 1849. Dit orgel werd door Bryceson in 1868 en door Hill in 1886 omgebouwd.
