St James' Parish Church, Southbroom, Devizes, Wiltshire
As part of a major reordering and restoration of the interior of this beautiful medieval church, St James' chose a 41-stop three manual organ, sited on a new gallery at the West End of the building, with external speakers on the West end wall. The work was completed in full in August 2008, and the transformation is execeptionally successful (particularly so at the West end where the large window is now fully visible for the first time in many years).
