Bâti par: Forster & Andrews (1874)
In 1874 Forster & Andrews built an organ for Wesley Methodist Church in Reading. The instrument was expanded in 1929 with a Bourdon 16' on the pedal and a wind motor by William Sweetland. The organ was converted to electric action in 1974 by George Osmond. The company Fearn & Sons restored the organ in 1998-1999. They expanded the disposition with a Celeste and a Twelfth, and a few extensions. The Twelfth and the Celeste could be installed on empty slides on the wind chests. On the console preparations were made for a Trumpet and Clarion on Great. The organ was inaugurated again in June 1999.
