  • In 1874/1875 T.C. built Lewis an organ for the new Church of Saint Peter on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich. This church was built according to a design by Charles Barry. The organ was completed by Lewis in 1893. The Willis company converted it in 1934/1935. The organ was given a new console, partly electro-pneumatic action and the reeds were revoiced. On Swell, Willis moved the Oboe 8' to a Contra-Oboe 16'. After the Second World War, Willis restored the organ from war damage in 1947.
  • Saint Peter's Church was closed in 1984, and sold hereafter. In 1995 the organ was transferred by Saxon Aldred to the Church of Saint Augustine of Canterbury in Tooting. This church housed a completely renovated organ by Bevington & Sons, which, however, no longer had much artistic value.
