Forster and Andrews

Forster and Andrews was a British organ building company between 1843 and 1924.

The company was formed by James Alderson Forster (1818–1886) and Joseph King Andrews (1820–1896), who had been employees of the London organ builder J. C. Bishop.

The business developed and became one of the most successful of the North of England organ builders.

As well as their Hull headquarters, the company had branches in London and York.
