1909 Norman & Beard  new organ
2007 Peter Jewkes  restoration

  • In 1889 a new Congregational Church was build in Strathfield. After thirty years an organ was purchased from Norman & Beard. It's located in the southern transept. Lucky enough it has never been changed and so is still in it's original state. In later years the church united with the methodist church to Trinity Uniting Church.
  • Peter Jewkes restored the instrument in the years 2003 - 2007. Advisors during the restoration were Kelvin Hastie and John Sheppard, in coöparation with Hugh Knight, organist of the church.
