Edward Prioleau Warren

In 1914, he gave evidence on behalf of the Commissioners of Works into a proposed Preservation Order on 75 Dean Street, Soho, London.

At the beginning of his career, he built and altered a number of churches, but he is known principally for domestic buildings in an understated revival of English late 17th century styles: his main works were lodgings for Oxford colleges and minor country houses.

Warren married Margaret Cecil Louisa Morrell, sister of Philip Morrell on 6 October 1894,[4] and one of their sons, Brigadier-General Christopher Prioleau Warren, became a noted bibliophile and received the Military Cross in the First World War and MBE and Legion of Merit for the second World War.

Warren himself was a friend and adviser to the American novelist, Henry James, who lived at Lamb House, Rye, Sussex; their correspondence is now in the Huntington Library in San Marino, California.

Warren lived the last thirty years of his life at Breach House, Halfpenny Lane, Cholsey, built in 1906, which he designed for himself.
