I RECENTLY visited James Finegan Municipal Hall, in South Bank, to say my personal last farewell to the mighty Wurlitzer organ (Echo, May 23).

Kevin Grunill, the organ’s new owner, said about 75 people attended the last playing.

Kevin will take the Wurlitzer to Barnsley with the intention to bring the it back to Redcar when our new leisure and civic facilities are completed in the not to distant future.

This will mean the Wurlitzer will have returned to Redcar where its organ life began many years ago.

Councillor George Dunning, Leader, Redcar and Cleveland Council.
