JOHN MIDDLETON Victorian, Provincial Architect by Brian E Torode (2003)
Very little has been written about the life and career of John Middleton, although in recent times there has been a growing interest in the man and his work especially in Cheltenham, a town which boasts five Victorian Gothic churches built to his designs. This book does not claim in any way to be an architectural or scholarly appreciation of Middleton’s work. It is a record of his life and his contribution to Victorian, provincial architecture.
