- De kerk van Saint Mary Abchurch in Cannon Street in Londen werd in de houdige vorm gebouwd na de grote stadsbrand van 1666. J.C. Bishop plaatste in 1822 een orgel in de kerk, dat in 1869 werd uitgebreid door Bishop & Starr, en vervolgens werd herbouwd door Brindley & Foster in de jaren 1875-1881. Dit orgel is verloren gegaan door bombardementen gedurende de Tweede Wereldoorlog.
- In 1955 bouwde Noel Mander een nieuw orgel voor de inmiddels herstelde kerk. Het is gebouwd met gebruik van veel oud materiaal, afkomstig van diverse orgels. De orgelkas is gebouwd in 1717 voor de kerk van All Hallows in Bread Street. De maker van dit orgel is niet zeker, het is waarschijnlijk Gerard Smith of Christopher Schreider geweest. Dit orgel werd in de negentiende eeuw gewijzigd en verhuisde in 1877 naar de nieuwe All Hallows Church aan de East India Dock Road. Door een bom raakte dit orgel in 1942 zeer zwaar beschadigd. De kas overleefde de oorlog echter grotendeels en deze kon worden gereconstrueerd voor het Mander-orgel.
