In 1919 bouwde de firma Hill, Norman & Beard een demonstratie-orgel met de naam 'Bathurst Mammoth Cathedral Organ'. Het was een groot concertorgel dat tijdens festiviteiten en kermissen kon worden opgebouwd. In 1924 breidde men het uit en werd het geplaatst in het Wembley Stadion in Londen, ter gelegenheid van de Wembley Exhibition. Na afloop van de tentoonstelling werd het verkocht aan het Opera House in Tunbridge Wells. Hier deed het kort dienst als bioscooporgel. Al in 1927 is het orgel gedemonteerd en opgeslagen. Het is daarna verkocht aan de stad Dunedin in Nieuw-Zeeland. In 1929 is het daar opgebouwd in de nieuwe Town Hall. Het orgel is opnieuw gewijzigd en uitgebreid. In februari 1930 is het orgel tegelijk met de Town Hall in gebruik genomen. De New Zealand's South Island Organ Company restaureerde het orgel in 1995.
