Abbott and Smith were a firm of organ builders based in Leeds, England from 1869 to 1964.[1]

History

Isaac Abbott established the firm in Leeds in 1869. He had worked for William Hill in London for 20 years. Another Hill employee, William Stanwix Smith, was manager until Isaac Abbott retired in 1889. The firm followed the tonal style of Edmund Schulze.[2]

From 1889 William Smith and Isaac Abbott’s son continued the firm. Later it passed to Smith’s sons and grandson.

In 1964 the firm was bought by J.H. Horsfall.
