Frederick Sandham 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. [1]
Waller was articled to the civil engineer and county surveyor for Gloucestershire, Thomas Fulljames (1808–74), who proposed him as a Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1856. [1] Waller worked in partnership with Fulljames from 1846–70 and with Walter Bryan Wood from 1852. [1] One of Waller's sons, Frederick William Waller (1848–1933), was articled to his father and was in partnership with him from 1873. [1]
Another of Waller's sons, Samuel Edward Waller, became an artist. Waller's grandson Noel Huxley Waller (1881–1961) also became an architect. [1]
Waller and his wife Annie lived for several years at the Moors, Barnwood Road. He retired in 1900 and died at Westgrove Barnwood, Gloucestershire, on 22 March 1905. [1] He was buried at St Bartholomew and St Andrew, Churchdown, on 25 March
Most of Waller's architectural commissions were in Gloucestershire. He also designed a Tudor Revival extension that was added to the house at Great Tew Park in Oxfordshire. [2] In London's Belsize Park he designed the house at 69 Eton Avenue for the artist John Collier.
Waller applied his architectural training to antiquarianism. In 1848 he drew a plan and sections of an historic barn at Shilton, Oxfordshire, that had stone walls and an aisled timber frame. [3] Later the barn was reputedly gutted by fire [4] and at the foot of his drawings Waller added "All now destroyed". [5] However, in 1971 the probable remains of the barn at Shilton with were identified with the help of Waller's drawings. [6]
