Hi, Marijim. I'm afraid the Gresford Te Deum is 75% Victorian reconstruction. I don't have sufficiently detailed slides of it but I've trawled through Mostyn Lewis's description (in Stained Glass in North Wales up to 1850, Altrincham: John Sherratt and Son, 1970) and I can't find a pipe organ anywhere. I also had a quick scamper through the rest of Lewis. There's another fragmentary Te Deum window at Hope (Flints) - angels with lutes, harps and pipes but no pipe organ! Also (according to Lewis, who is helpful but not always totally reliable) a male figure playing a zither and a nose with a brass instrument. I have a vague feeling that one of the angels on the roof at Llangollen has something like a pipe organ - will check when I get home, if you like.
