(1839-1902) Architect, born Doncaster, England; died London. He upheld the architectural principles and methods of the Middle Ages and promoted the Gothic revival in England. Commissioned in 1894 to build the cathedral of Westminster, he chose the Byzantine style to avoid comparison with Westminster Abbey, designed everything to the last detail, and produced the most remarkable church erected in England since the Reformation.
