*************

St Dionysius' Church, Market Harborough is a Grade I listed[1] parish church in the Church of England in Market Harborough, Leicestershire.[2]

The earliest parts of the church date from the 13th century, with most features dating from 14th and 15th centuries. Part of the tower was destroyed in a storm in 1735 and the replacement was several feet shorter. Restoration work was carried out in 1857 when the pews of 1751 were cut down in height to about 3 ft and the organ moved from the west gallery to a specially constructed recess. The church reopened on 8 January 1858.[3] In 1887 the chancel and south aisle were re-roofed, and in 1951 the nave roof was replaced.

Organ

The pipe organ was moved in 1857 and later replaced with a new instrument by J Porritt of Leicester. This was opened on 9 August 1877.[4] Modifications were made in 1914. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[5]
