I am researching Charles Harrison Townsend for the Arts & Crafts Movement in Surrey and compiling a Catalogue Raisonne of all his works. I am also studying his life and times, and the architectural context in which he worked and his connections with the Art Workers Guild. Townsend was a leading architect of the Arts & Crafts Movement in the UK and Europe at the turn of the nineteenth century, who has largely been forgotten with the passing of time.
