Deane and Woodward
The Irish architectural firm of Deane and Woodward was an important contributor to the Gothic Revival in Victorian England as the first significant exponent of John Ruskin's precepts in shaping a Ruskinian Gothic style through the 1850s. The firm was an outgrowth of the practice of Sir Thomas Deane (1792-1871). Benjamin Woodward (1816-1861) entered Deane's office in 1845 and went on to design the firm's finest buildings in the 1850s. In 1850, Thomas Newenham Deane (1828-1899) joined his father's practice; a year later both he and Woodward were made partners. The partnership ended in 1861 with Woodward's death.
