Richard Hey Sharp (1793-1853) was an English architect based in York and responsible for the design, repair and construction of a number of iconic Yorkshire buildings.

Early life

Richard Hey Sharp was born on 2 June 1793 to Richard Sharp and Mary (née Turton) and baptised in Batley two days later. Richard was the eldest of five children including the surgeon and promoter of museums William Sharp and Samuel Sharp who followed his brother into a career in architecture. Initially living in Gildersome, the family had moved to Armley by the end of the 18th century where his father was a drysalter. The Sharps were from an ancient Yorkshire family which included the mathematician Abraham Sharp, the Archbishop of York John Sharp, Archdeacon of Northumbria Thomas Sharp, the surgeon William Sharp and the abolitionist Granville Sharp.[1] Richard's paternal grandmother, Sarah Hey, was the sister of the surgeon and twice mayor of Leeds William Hey, theologian John Hey and academic and essayist Richard Hey.

Career

Richard travelled on the Continent between 1816 and 1819 and was a pupil of the York architect Peter Atkinson[2] with whom he went into partnership on his return. Atkinson and Sharp had an office in Fetter Lane, York [3] until the partnership was dissolved in 1826 [4] after which he set up on his own, before going into business with his younger brother Samuel in the early 1830s, until that partnership was dissolved in 1845[5]
