==History==
Hoare Lea was founded by Henry Lea in 1862.〔(Hoare Lea: Practice History )〕 With an expertise spanning the mechanical and electrical disciplines, he was the first person to advertise himself as a Consulting Mechanical Engineer when he opened his office in Birmingham.〔
Lea pioneered both electrical lighting and methods of efficient heating and air conditioning systems. In 1882, Lea supervised one of the first electrical lighting systems installed in a public building at Birmingham Town Hall.〔 Other notable examples of Lea's work include the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast, widely recognised as one of the first air conditioned buildings in the world.〔
Lea died in 1912 leaving control of the practice to his son, Fred M. Lea, also an engineer and his long-standing principal assistant. During the inter-war recession the firm continued to design for public buildings, and in 1939 Donald Lea amalgamated the Practice with that of Edwin S. Hoare and Partners of Bristol to form Hoare Lea.〔
