ca. 1879 Bryceson Brothers  new organ
1983 Brian Carlick  restoration

  • The organ in the Church of Saint Michael in Aston Tirrold was installed in a new organ room in the church around 1906. This is an older instrument, probably built around 1879 by the Bryceson Brothers. There was previously an organ in Walker's church from 1850 with three registers. It is possible that this organ was rebuilt and expanded by Bryceson, but it could also be a completely different organ.
  • In 1983 Brian Carlick carried out a restoration. He replaced the Gamba 8' with a Fifteenth.
