  • The organ at Newbury Methodist Church was built by Alfred Hunter in 1898. It was a two-manual organ with 25 stops. In 1963 the instrument was converted by Gray & Davison. They installed a Choir Organ as the third manual, with a new console and new tracks. On October 5, 1963, the organ was re-dedicated with a concert by Salisbury Cathedral organist Richard Lloyd.
  • The firm of B.C. Shepherd & Son carried out various activities over time. In 1987 a Suabe Flute 2' was added to Choir, replacing the Viol 8'. This rank was made by Bishop & Son in 1888 for the organ of All Saints' Church in South Acton. In 1993 high-pressure reeds were installed, which can be played on Great, Choir and Pedal. The organ was thoroughly renovated in 2013-2014. The pedal was expanded with an Acoustic Bass 32'.
