Thomas Hopper (1776–1856) was an English architect of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, much favoured by King George IV, and particularly notable for his work on country houses across southern England, with occasional forays further afield, into Wales and Northern Ireland. He was involved with improvements to the Shire Hall in Monmouth under "Royal assent" where he and Edward Haycock made the building extend down Agincourt Street creating room for a new staircase and larger courts. Hopper took up residence in Monnow Street in Monmouth whilst this was happening.〔 In 1840 he exhibited designs for Butterton Hall in Staffordshire. This gothic building lasted until the first World War when it was demolished due to misuse during the war.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://lh.matthewbeckett.com/houses/lh_staffordshire_buttertonhall.html )〕 Hopper died in 1856.〔 ==Projects== *Leigh Court, north Somerset (1814) *Penrhyn Castle, Llandegai, Bangor, north Wales (1822–1837)〔 〕 *Kentwell Hall, Suffolk (1820s) *Arthur’s Club, 69–70 St James’s Street, London (after 1940 the Carlton) (1826–7) *Llanover House, Abergavenny, Wales (1827–1837; demolished 1935) *Improvements to the Shire Hall, Monmouth (1829)〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.shirehallmonmouth.org.uk/?page_id=368 )〕 *Bryn Bras Castle, Llanrug north Wales (1829–1835)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bryn Bras Castle )〕 *Margam Castle, south Wales (1830–1840) *Wivenhoe House, Essex (1846–53) *Hospital buildings at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, London (1851) *Alscot Park, Warwickshire *Amesbury Abbey, Wiltshire *Boreham House, Essex *Gothic Conservatory at Carlton House, London, demolished *Crichel House, Dorset, alterations *Danbury Park, Essex *Easton Lodge, Essex *Englefield House, Berkshire *Gosford Castle, County Armagh *Chapel at Stansted Park, West Sussex *Glemham House, Suffolk (1814) *Terling Place, Essex *Works at Windsor Castle *Gothic Ballroom at Slane Castle, County Meath, Ireland *Entrance lodge at Dromoland Castle, County Clare, Ireland *Woolverstone Hall, Suffolk (extension and remodelling) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thomas Hopper (architect)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
