Philip Charles Hardwick

Philip Charles Hardwick (1822-1892), son of architect Philip Hardwick, was the last architect in the family line and is reputed to have designed many of the finest banks in the City of London.

His best known work was the Great Hall of Euston Station (opened on 27 May 1849), parts of the Titsey Estate in Surrey (1856), new wings at the Greenwich Hospital School (now part of the National Maritime Museum) (1861-62), and Paddington station hotel (1868-74). He also helped design parts of Lincoln's Inn with his father and was the architect of St John's Church in Deptford and St Edmund's School in Canterbury, Kent.

The Great Hall was demolished in the early 1960s to make way for construction of the current Euston Station building.
