The Pride of the South - Gaudin organ
This old-time fairground ride is parked at the North Walsham Garden Centre car park, and open to the public, until Christmas. The ride was built by King's Lynn engineer Frederick Savage in 1893 and left the county for Lancashire after its completion. The then fairly plain carved gallopers were in time embellished with mirrors, brightly coloured rounded boards and twisted gold rails by a succession of owners. The ride has not been modified and still has its complement of wooden gallopers but the original steam engine has been replaced by an electric generator. Showman Bobby Rawlins purchased the carousel in 1960 after which time it appeared in many films, the probably most widely known being 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang', 'Oh What a Lovely War', 'Derby Day'. The original 89-key Gaudin organ was built in France in 1920 and plays tunes written especially for 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' as well as fairground classics. Four years ago the Queen asked for the ride to be brought to Buckingham Palace where it entertained crowds at a charity event.
