SK9716 : Church of St Mary: Organ pipes
taken 10 years ago, near to Clipsham, Rutland, England
Church of St Mary: Organ pipes
The layout of the interior is slightly unusual. Whereas the South Aisle has an arcade of 3 arches, the North Aisle is longer and has a 4th arch in the Chancel. This arch, which is one of the 19th century pointed ones, now reveals the Organ pipes.
The organ was added around 1890, and was last surveyed by the National Pipe Organ register in 1945: Link

Church of St Mary, Clipsham
Heavily restored in 1858, the church nevertheless dates back to the 12th century. It is a grade II* listed building, with Norman Arches in the North Arcade. It has always been associated heavily with the families at Clipsham Hall.
The bells were hung in the 17th Century. The first dated 1671, the second by Tobie Norris (II) of Stamford 1675, and the tenor by Thomas Norris 1657.
