The "Royal" Compton has been removed from

 

the cinema at Derry's Cross, Plymouth and is

 

awaiting its re-birth in a new home.

 

 

Unfortunately the future of this splendid instrument is now in doubt. Follow the link below to the Blackheath Compton website - where you can read about the rescue of the organ but plans to install the organ at Blackheath did not materialise. A new home for the organ, preferably in the West Country, is now being sought - we would welcome any ideas in our Guest Book.

There are also photographs, history, and a video interview with Dudley Savage talking to Rick Wakeman which will become part of a TV documentary on the organ's story.
