The hand-built dark oak console is situated at the Eastern end of the nave next to the choir stalls, and the amplifiers and speakers are either side of the nave screen next to the East walls of the two transepts speaking West on purpose-built scaffolding towers.
The Positive organ (not shown in the photos) is free-standing in the quire.
When the pipe organ was recommissioned in September 2001 this organ was sold to Milton Regis Church near Sittingbourne in Kent.
