  • U DFJ Records of Francis Johnson 1939-2010 & Partners, Architects
    Hull History Centre: Records of Francis Johnson & Partners, Architects U DFJ Records of Francis Johnson 1939-2010 & Partners, Architects Historical Background: Francis Johnson and Partners, Architects (1937-Present) This firm of architects was established by local architect Francis Johnson in 1937. Based in Bridlington, the office was originally in Manor Street before being moved to its permanent location at Craven House, 16 High Street, in 1940. In the early years there was just Francis and a secretary working at the firm. In 1947 a draughtsman, Brian Smith, was appointed by Francis to help him cope with an increasing workload. The first architect to be appointed was Clive Barnby in 1953 and he remained with the firm until 1971. Tim Pool was the next architect to be appointed, he was with the firm from 1961 until 1967. In 1963 a third architect, Malcolm D. McKie, was appointed and his business acumen proved indispensable to the running of the firm. Malcolm McKie remained at the firm until his retirement. The 1970s and 1980s saw a massive increase in work for the firm, and in 1989 Digby Harris was appointed as the firm's newest architect. In 1991 the leadership of the firm jointly passed to Digby Harris and Malcolm G. Stather. Other employees of the firm have included Roger J.M. Goldthorpe and V. Kemp-Webster. As would be expected, most of the firm's work was located in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Staple commissions tended to be located in Bridlington, Driffield, Filey and the surrounding villages. North Yorkshire also provided the firm with a large number of commissions centred round York itself, Malton, Whitby and Scarborough.

  • Address . T. Bulmer &
    ADDRESS . I N submitting to their subscribers this edition of the History, Topography , and Directory of East Yorkshire, the Proprietors trust that the arrang . Thement and treatment of the matter will meet with general approval e compilation of such a work necessarily occupies a considerable length of time, during which many changes take place, but the Editors have endeavoured to kee p themselves au fait with what was passing, and to secure the latest and most accurate information, each town and parish was personally re-visited and revised whilst the sheets were in the press . In the arrangement the New Parliamentary Divisions have been adopted , instead of the old and nearly obsolete Wapentakes ; and the parishes in each follow in alphabetical order . A copious index will still further facilitate reference . Of the plan and scope of the work little need be said . The East Riding is first viewed as a whole, and a resume of its history is given. This is followed b y a sketch of its physical features, soil and agriculture ; and its judicial an d ecclesiastical polity and divisions. Each parish is next passed in review, an d whatever there may be of interest attaching to it is related. The desire of the Proprietors has been to produce a thoroughly reliable and trustworthy book of reference, and they can assure their patrons that no effort s have been spared on their part to secure this important and essential feature . A few errors may possibly have escaped detection, but the Editors are confident that in completeness and accuracy this History and Directory of East Yorkshir e will compare favourably with any hitherto published.
