James Harrison (architect)
James Harrison (1814–66) was an English architect who practised in Chester, Cheshire, England. He is considered to be a pioneer of the Black-and-white Revival,[1] an example of which is 51–53, Bridge Street, Chester, built in 1858.[2] In 1862 he rebuilt the medieval timber-framed God's Providence House in Chester, which has been described as "the first conservation case in the modern sense".[3] He designed new churches in Gothic Revival style, some of which have been designated as listed buildings, including Holy Ascension Church, Upton by Chester,[4][5] Holy Trinity Church, Capenhurst,[6][7] St Luke's Church, Dunham on the Hill,[8][9] and Holy Trinity Church, Chester.[10][11] Harrison also made alterations to other churches, including the virtual rebuilding of St Michael's Church, Chester,[12][13] rebuilding the nave of All Saints Church, Handley,[14][15] and working on the tower of the Church of St Mary-on-the Hill, Chester.[16][17] He designed the Trustee Savings Bank in Chester,[18][19] and converted the medieval St Nicholas' Chapel in Chester into a concert hall. Harrison worked for Robert Balfour, building farms on his Bolesworth estate,[20][21] and at Tattenhall Hall.[22]
