Bishopscourt Chapel Organ

Bishopscourt is the ancient seat of the bishops of Sodor and Man and was used by them until the mid-1970s when it went into private ownership. The present chapel was built in 1858 and the organ, built by Bevingtons of London, dates from 1878.
The instrument is maintained and tuned by the Island’s resident organ builder, Peter Jones, and a fuller description of the instrument, written by Peter, can be found at this web address:
