James Harrison (1814–1866) was an English architect who practised in Chester, Cheshire, England.
He is considered to be a pioneer of the Black-and-white Revival,[1] an example of which is 51–53, Bridge Street, Chester, built in 1858.
[2] In 1862 he rebuilt the medieval timber-framed God's Providence House in Chester, which has been described as "the first conservation case in the modern sense".
[16][17] He designed the Trustee Savings Bank in Chester,[18][19] and converted the medieval St Nicholas' Chapel in Chester into a concert hall.
Harrison worked for Robert Balfour, building farms on his Bolesworth estate,[20][21] and at Tattenhall Hall.
