Upon being counted in the workshop it looked as if the bottom 6 wooden pipes of the old Nelson Principal rank were missing. There was no sign of them among the pipework back at church. Eventually we worked it out – they were never put in in the first place! Instead, the Principal rank “borrowed” the bottom 6 pipes of the Flute rank. This rank is a fundamental part of the new organ, so we now need to find 6 pipes from somewhere that will match the rest of the Principal rank and finally complete it – over 100 years after it was first made!
