The Organ in St Simon's Church, Plymouth was originally built by
Renatus Harris in 1707 for St Peter Mancroft Church, Norwich.
It was subsequently rebuilt and enlarged by John Pike England in 1794
and again by Hedgeland in 1866.
Hele & Company built a new Organ for St Peter Mancroft in
1910.
They removed the old Organ and after much refurbishment installed it
in St. Simon's Church, Plymouth in 1912.
