24 September

The builders arrive at All Souls to take down the organ and take some of the parts and the console from Wyke to the workshop for refurbishing and rebuilding. We discover that the wall behind the organ has never been properly sealed and mortar dust and grit from the wall had caused a lot of the damage to the organ.
