The Parish Church of
Saint Mary and All Saints, Whalley
Whalley Parish Church Organ
Originally built for Lancaster Priory by Gerard Smith in 1727, it came to Whalley in 1813 and has been enlarged and improved four times since, an electric blower being added in 1928. In 1972, the organ was rebuilt by George Sixsmith & Son of Ashton under Lyne and the console was brought down from the gallery to its present position. Once again the organ is maintained by George Sixsmith and Son and they will be replacing the bellows after nearly 100 years of regular use.
