He was involved with improvements to the Shire Hall in Monmouth under "Royal assent" where he and Edward Haycock made the building extend down Agincourt Street creating room for a new staircase and larger courts. Hopper took up residence in Monnow Street in Monmouth whilst this was happening.[1] In 1840 he exhibited designs for Butterton Hall in Staffordshire. This gothic building lasted until the first World War when it was demolished due to misuse during the war.[1] Hopper died in 1856.[1] Projects
