}}Andrew Oswald Wilson (1866–1950) was an early-20th-century Western Australian architect.[2] Born and trained as a carpenter in Victoria, he moved first to Perth and then to the goldfields, where he worked for Murdock McKay Hopkins.[2] One of his best-known buildings is the Boulder town hall, for which he submitted designs in 1907.[3] In 1908 he moved back to Perth and practiced from Forrest Chambers (at 62 St George’s Terrace).[2]

In 1917 he and his wife May left Australia for England, where Wilson enlisted in the Army.[2]

Wilson died on 19 June 1950 at St Andrew's Hospital in Melbourne.[2] He was 83.[4]
