John Wood, the Younger (25 February 1728 – 18 June 1782) was an English architect, working principally in the city of Bath, Somerset. He was the son of the architect John Wood, the Elder. His designs were highly influential during the 18th century and the Royal Crescent is considered to be one of the best examples of Georgian Neo-Classical architecture in Britain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/647350/John-Wood-the-Younger )〕 == Biography == John Wood was born in 1728, the year his father moved to Bath, and was baptised in Bath Abbey.〔 He was trained by his father and as a young man worked on several of his father’s projects such as Liverpool Town Hall. In either 1752 or early 1753 he married Elizabeth Brock. They had two sons together and at least eight daughters. Wood died at Eagle House, Batheaston (his home in later years) on 16 June 1781 and was buried beside his father in the chancel at St Mary’s Church, Swainswick. He was deeply in debt, partly due to financial conditions relating to his father’s earlier building speculations.
