Editing Cartmel Priory (section)

===Organ===
The pipe organ was installed in 1867 by F. Jardine of Manchester. The inauguration was recorded in the ''Westmorland Gazette'' of 28 September 1867:<ref name=WG1867/> <blockquote>The organ which has been built by Mr. Jardine of Manchester, had its capabilities tested by Mr. Stevens of Holy Trinity Church, Manchester. It had been intended where the rubric leaves it optional, whether any part shall be "said or sung" to have our beautiful church service sung by one of the finest choirs of Manchester, and the organ presided at by one of the most accomplished amateur players in the North of England. Arrangements having been made by Mr. Jardine for the attendance of Mr. Joule and his choir of St. Peter’s; but the Bishop has so strong an objection to musical services, and such strong fears of its effects on worshippers, that out of deference to his opinion the people of Cartmel were deprived of what would certainly have been, and what they had long been anticipating as a good treat. </blockquote>

The organ was rebuilt in 1969 by [[Rushworth and Dreaper]] of Liverpool and in 2005 by Principal Pipe Organs. A specification of the organ can be found on the [[National Pipe Organ Register]].<ref>{{National Pipe Organ Register|id=E01096 |access-date=7 March 2017}}</ref>
