Note 492 — CHAPTER 23 LATER WORK OF THE LEADERS OF THE SECOND GENERATION

Technically the architects were J. Alan Slater and Arthur Hamilton Moberly (1885-1952) with 468Crabtree as designing associate. Professor Sir Charles Herbert Reilly (1874-1948), head of the School of Architecture at Liverpool, which he made one of the most advanced schools in the world in these years, was consultant. It is curious to recall that he had earlier been a consultant on Devonshire House in Piccadilly in London, built in 1924-6 by Carrère & Hastings (John M., 1858-1911; and Thomas, 1860-1929), when the influence of American ‘traditional’ architecture was strong in London (see Chapter 24).
