All Saints’ Anglican Church
Albion Park
Dr Kelvin Hastie writes:
This organ is of unknown provenance, but has as its basis an English century instrument, of the period 1860-80 with quite an amount of replacement pipework. The Church of England Historical Society Journal for September 1969 records that the instrument was opened at All Saints’ on 21 October 1953 and came from a bombed-out dockside church in Bermondsey, London. The instrument was supplied by N.P. Mander, who carried out some renovation work prior to its export to Australia. The specification of the organ is
