The 122 year old Lewis organ in Keston Parish Church was granted Grade II* listed status by the British Institute of Organ Studies in January 2026. The report by their Chairman, Dr William McVicar stated that the organ was “an instrument of special interest installed in 1904 by Lewis and Co. It is in almost original condition, is robustly engineered and with an unusual musical scheme… and is an instrument of importance to the national heritage and one deserving careful preservation for the benefit of future generations.” The church building is also Grade II* listed.
