One of the greatest treasures in Chippenham is the organ in St Andrews church. Originally built by Bryce Seede in 1752 (arguably the finest West Country organ builder) it was relocated and substantially expanded in 1879. It is one of only two surviving Bryce Seede organs in the world.
This magnificent instrument is now overdue for a significant rebuild, and the part of the wind chest that feeds the swell organ was not functioning as it should over the very hot summer last year. The costs of doing this will be considerable, and we need your help to make it happen.
Charities pay a small fee for our service. Learn more about fees
