Choir 

We are a friendly choir and are always happy to accept new members. We usually rehearse at 7pm on Thursdays in St Peter and St Paul Church. Currently we are looking for Tenor, Bass and Alto singers.  If you are interested in joining us, please contact Wendy Harris, our Organist and Choral Director at the Parish Office, via the church office. You can find contact information here.

We are a traditional robed choir of men and women. Our repertoire is broad and spans music from the Renaissance through to the present day. We are affiliated to the Royal School of Church Music, and aim to achieve the best possible standards to aid worship within our church.

The Organ

We are very proud of our church organ and committed to its maintenance.  It was built by James J. Binns of Leeds and installed in 1916. It has two manuals, a pedal board, 21 speaking stops and a range of couplers and combination pistons.  Restoration work to the organ was carried out in 2006. In 2016, the original pneumatic action (which was not part of the 2006 restoration work) was converted to an electro-pneumatic system.
