This is a fantastic opportunity to see and play two historic organs. At 10am we will be visiting St James’ Bermondsey which has a 3-manual Bishop organ dating from 1829, and most lately restored by Goetze & Gwynn (see their webpage here for some history and details of the restoration).
Then at 2pm we move on to St Anne’s, Limehouse, which has a 3-manual Gray and Davison organ (1851) with a Grade 1 Historic Organ Certificate (see here for some history of the Church and the organ).
