  • The organ in the Memorial Chapel at Sandhurst was originally built by the firm of Blackett & Howden in 1924. In 1950 it was completely rebuilt and extended by Rushworth & Dreaper. The reconstruction was carried out as a Memorial Organ for the fallen soldiers of the Indian Army during the Second World War. It is placed on a new gallery in the north transept. The front was designed by Hugh Casson. The Solo Division is played from the Choir manual. Choir and Solo are in the same swell box.
  • The organ is still present, but has been decommissioned.
