The Anglican Church of St Nicholas in Yonago, Japan made in 1993

 The church was brand new, the third Anglican church to be built in Yonago. This is a new organ based on the organs of Richard Bridge at Christ Church Spitalfields (1735) and St Leonard Shoreditch (1756) in London. The case is based loosely on the 1716 organ case at St Lawrence Whitchurch.
