About John Wilson (English architect)

  • John Wilson (1781, Dalston, Cumbria - 1866, Shirley, Hampshire) was a Clerk of Works for the Board of Ordnance who became one of the most celebrated architects in the island of Guernsey for the buildings he designed there between 1813 and 1831. He worked mostly in stucco (which he called 'Roman cement') in the neoclassical, Gothic Revival or Jacobethan styles. Despite the recognition of his work in Guernsey, he appears to have done little work outside the island and remains a rather elusive figure.
