2004 William Drake  new organ in old case

About 1745 Thomas Griffin installed a new organ with two manuals and independent pedal in the Church of Saint Paul in Deptford. The organ was not built by him, but the 'real' builder is not known. Griffin only placed instruments. The interior was lost over time. Behind the old front and in the original organ case, William Drake built a new organ in 2004.
