George Thomas Robinson FSA (c.1827 - 6 May 1897) was an English architect who started in Wolverhampton, moved to Manchester, Leamington Spa and later to London.[1]

Life

He was a pupil of John R. Hamilton and James Medland. He started his own practice in 1848 and worked in partnership with Henry John Paull as the firm of Paull and Robinson. He was appointed architect of the Coventry Archidiaconal Church Extension Society.

He was also a journalist and art critic for the Manchester Guardian. He was in Metz during the siege of the city in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870, and attempted to send messages to his editor by attaching them to balloons.[2]
