I think he created 'G-plan' furniture. It's a guess, as the founder of 'G-plan' was called (I thought ) E Gomme. I didn't know about the rest of it.
Whatever, even if I'm completely wrong, like many couples who set up home in early 70's, our house is a 'G-plan' period piece.

I doubt it, maybe a relation. No, this is much closer to home.

Yes, he did. He was the ‘Consulting Architect’. Member of the Society of Architects (this was subsumed by a precursor of the RIBA in 1925), he served in WW1 as a 2nd Lieut. until promoted to Lieut. at the very end of the war. He was listed as operating out of Watford itself. Can’t remember when he died. His son served in WW2 and emigrated to Australia, where he died in 1984.

Over to you. <ok>
