- Ini 1913, Norman & Beard constructed a new organ for Saint Stephen's Church, Bristol Road in Gloucester. The organ was restored and enlarged in 1953 by Daniel Percy with a Choir Organ, a Tromba/Trombone and a Double Open Diapason on Great.
- The church was closed for services in 2010. The organ was sold, and in 2019 it was dismantled by Mathieu Delmas. Gérard Bancells restored the organ and installed it in the Église du Bon Pasteur in Saint-Affrique. The Great Organ was enlarged with a new Mixture and a Clarion 4', both on spare places on the chest. On the pedal organ a new Bourdon 16' was installed, because the original Bourdon 16' had been stolen from the organ!
