I used to practice the organ in this church (1960's). In those days there was no electric light in the church and I used to get a candle from the vestry, go down into the crypt to turn on the electric organ blower, then return to the church and light the paraffin lamp over the organ console. Scary going through the graveyard, especially when it was a misty night.
we need to get some videos of us ringing too!
thanks for posting these Ed

Henry Oldfield II back four... lovely!
I like these for some reason......
Look at the pictures of the 18th century monument near the end - and see the face of Christ in it.
