"Oxford Chronicle", 13 October 1883: 'church now completed...A damp-proof
basement... is provided under the organ chamber for the bellows, thereby
allowing the large pipes of the organ to stand on the church floor level,
with ample space above for the sound to develop; a 'squint' will be formed
in the chancel arch ???, enabling the organist to see into the nave.';
