Organ:
A single-manual organ of seven stops built in 1873 by George Fincham for Christ Church, Echuca and moved to Middle park earlier this century. The instrument has an unusual crenellated cedar case, incorporating four flats of spotted metal pipes placed within Gothic arches, thought to be unique amongst Fincham's surviving work. It remains largely unaltered from the original, retaining its pipework, action and console.
