Notable works
Doulton works
Probably his most notable work was the headquarters and factory building of Sir Henry Doulton's pottery works, in North Lambeth. The building was in an extravagant high Gothic style, making extensive use of Doulton pottery tiles and figures for detailing. Only a small portion of the building survives today, as Doulton House. It retains its terracotta tympanum by Doulton's potter George Tinworth over the corner entranceway. The frieze includes figures of Henry Doulton and artists including Tinworth, Hannah Barlow, and her cat Tommy.
