Francis Edwards (born 1784; died 1857 at London)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=FreeBMD Entry Info )〕 was a British architect of the Georgian and early Victorian periods, who worked extensively in the London area. Sir John Soane's foremost pupil, Edwards joined Soane's office at Lincoln's Inn Fields as an improver in 1806 and was admitted to the Royal Academy Schools two years later. His work, mostly neo-classical in style, is best known now for town planning〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Knightsbridge North Side: Parkside to Albert Gate Court, High Row )〕〔(www.british-history.ac.uk - ''Alexander Estate, Brompton'' )〕 and landscaping,〔(www.londongardenstrust.org )〕 but Edwards also oversaw construction of his celebrated and much copied design of St John's Church〔(Royal Institute of British Architects )〕 at Hoxton,〔(www.english-heritage.org.uk )〕 and the Lion Brewery at Lambeth (demolished in 1949).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lion Brewery )〕 He was architect to the Imperial Gas Light and Coke Company as well as to the Goding brewing family, becoming an Associate of the Institute of British Architects〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Architecture.com RIBA homepage )〕 in London before establishing his own practice, ''Francis Edwards & Co''. In later years he lived at Bloomsbury Square in the parish of St Giles, London.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Will of Francis Edwards, architect, of Hart Street, Bloomsbury Square, Middlesex )〕 == See also ==
