Description nr.: 2015856.
Built by: T.C. Lewis & Co. (ca. 1890)
In de kerk van Saint Mary the Virgin in Bottesford stond een orgel van Forster & Andrews uit 1859, dat in 1882 geheel was verbouwd door de firma Wadsworth. Dit orgel verkeerde in minder goede staat. Het is in 1995 verkocht aan de parochiekerk van Willoughby-on-the-Wolds, overigens zonder de orgelkas. In Bottesford kon men het Lewis-orgel overnemen van de Church of Saint Hugh in Southwark, welke kerk gesloten werd. Het instrument is gereviseerd en overgeplaatst door vrijwilligers.
