History
St Michael's Church Halam is a Norman church, dating from the 12th century, and has some fine examples of stained glass, in particular the 15th-century medieval 'Adam and Eve’ window located in the chancel. It was restored from 1884 to 1889. It has a lovely Norman chancel arch much praised by Nicholas Pevsner.
The church is in a joint parish with St Giles' Church, Edingley.
Organ
The church contains a pipe organ installed in 2010 by Jonathan Wallace of Henry Groves & Son. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[2]
gollark: Not really.
gollark: Anarchoprimitivism, but also a giant space god floats above the planet randomly striking people with lightning.
gollark: Or, well, not all the time.
gollark: You still need people to get food and stuff! You can't have everyone go in torture chambers!
gollark: A brutal totalitarian dictatorship ruthlessly optimizing for suffering could probably work better.
