David Surtees Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I’m sure there are many similar examples across the UK, but this caught my eye when browsing a local newspaper site: https://www.falkirkherald.co.uk/news/politics/council/landmark-falkirk-town-centre-church-become-flats-3108425 The organ is only mentioned in passing, at the end, where it says, “The applicant must, however, submit a report about what will happen to the church’s organ and stained glass before development starts.” The organ in question is here (1905 II/P Norman & Beard): https://www.npor.org.uk/NPORView.html?RI=G01785 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johannes Riponensis Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 This is the second such redundant Scottish organ with an uncertain future I've seen in the last few days: the other was the walker organ in St James, Paisley. Perhaps it will follow the 1904 Hill organ from Kilbarchan to a new life in Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rwolff Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 This organ was removed by an organ shop, they had it in storage, maybe still do, but the pews look like most were smashed and the beautiful 1880s era church was demolished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
