Thomas Holloway

Holloway had business connections with an Italian, Felix Albinolo, who manufactured and sold a general purpose ointment.

Holloway's products were said to be able to cure a whole host of ailments, though scientific evaluation of them after his death showed that few of them contained any ingredients which would be considered to be of significant medicinal value.

Both were designed by the architect William Henry Crossland, and were inspired by the Cloth Hall in Ypres, Belgium, and the Château de Chambord in the Loire Valley, France.

[6][7][8] Holloway had become extremely wealthy by the late 1860s and bought a Georgian House at Sunninghill, near Ascot, Berkshire called Tittenhurst Park.

[10] A century later, from 1969 to 1971, the building became the home of John Lennon with his then new wife Yoko Ono, having been married on 20 March 1969 in Gibraltar.

In 1988, the property was sold to Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of Abu Dhabi.

[9] A display about his life was unveiled at the church in October 2014 by Royal Holloway's Principal, Professor Paul Layzell.
