===Organs=== Romsey Abbey has two organs. The main instrument was built by [[J. W. Walker & Sons Ltd|J W Walker & Sons]] in 1858 and replaced an earlier instrument by Henry Coster. The Walker Organ was rebuilt in its present position and enlarged in 1888. Major restoration work was carried out by J. W. Walker & Sons Ltd in 1995/96 under the supervision of the abbey's organist, Jeffrey Williams, restoring the mechanical actions and overhauling all of the pipe work. In 1999 a completely new nave organ by Walkers was constructed with its pipe work located on the south triforium. This can be played either from a mobile console in the nave or from the main console.<ref>{{National Pipe Organ Register|id=N11434|access-date=8 July 2020}}</ref>[[File:The Choir and organ of Romsey Abbey December 2012.jpg|thumb|The Choir and organ of Romsey Abbey December 2012]]
