Gebaut von: George Maydwell Holdich (1855)


A historic organ built in 1855 by George Maydwell Holdich was installed in the Church of the English Martyrs in Reading in 1981. It originally stood in the Iron Methodist Chapel in Aldershot, and was sold to Farnborough Methodist Church in 1876. After it was decommissioned here, the instrument ended up in the school chapel of Hazelmere School. It was purchased for Reading in 1980.
