The Great Hall and part of the Stone Buildings were designed
by the father and son architects, Philip and Philip Charles Hardwick.
Another famous architect, Sir
Giles Gilbert Scott , also contributed to the Great Hall and it can be
clearly seen which part. Philip Hardwick wanted to be known for as his
initials are shown one side of the building as P.H - 1843. |
