Admiralty Arch by Aston Webb Photograph by Alex Stout

With Admiralty Arch and the east front of Buckingham Palace, Aston Webb gave central London a grandeur equal to the Edwardian age. His designs for the Victoria & Albert Museum and much of the nearby Imperial College and Royal School of Mines show a great appreciation of architectural tradition. But his restoration of the ruined church of St Bartholomew the Great at Smithfield may be his most personal contribution to London. Ian Dungavell, Director of the Victorian Society, explores the work of this Royal Academician architect.
