Frederick S. Waller
F[rederick] S[andham] Waller (1822 — 22 March 1905)[1] was a British architect and antiquarian of Gloucester, where he was the resident architect to the dean and chapter of Gloucester Cathedral.[2] He began his career in the office of the civil engineer and county surveyor for Gloucestershire, Thomas Fulljames (1808-1874), with whom he worked in partnership, 1846-1870; Fulljames proposed him as a Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1856. From 1873 to his retirement in 1900/01, F.S. Waller, as he was always called, was in partnership with his son, Frederick William Waller (1848—1933), who had trained in his office.[3]
His residence was at Barnwood, Gloucestershire. Some of the picturesque restoration and emendations to Birtsmorton Court, Worcestershire, are owing to his work there in 1871-72.[4]
