The Picture attached was taken recently by a visitor to Hampton Court London.
Michael Houlden.has asked if anyone can provide details of the maker/owner.
It looks like a newly built organ.

Hi there George.

This organ is an 89k Van den Broek, it was built during the early 90's i think 1991.

The organ was on ebay a month or two back now, but i think it was sold privately.

The organ at the time of the sale was owned by the late Roger Austin and was left in a truck outside in his yard, the organ only has around four books which were cut by Andrew Whitehead who also maintained the organ at one point.

Hope this information is of use,

Cheers....

Eddy.
