The above organ from Bethesda was rebuilt and installed in 1897, and still serves us well to this day. Prior to the installation of electricity the Trustees employed an old man to pump the bellows by hand. He sat behind a curtain (where the wood screens now are). Often he went to sleep during the sermon and had to be wakened before the organist could play the organ!
The beautiful St. Margaret Stained Glass window,( made by Thompson & Smee of Gateshead) depicting St. Margaret of Scotland, was purchased in memory of Mrs. Margaret Greener, by her husband, a prominent coal exporter and shipbroker. St Margaret of Scotland was noted in both private and public for her active participation in the advancement of religion by spiritual and temporal care of the people - hence the window shows a small child, the plans for church building and working conditions in the background.
