James Macintyre Henry

James Mcintyre Henry (1852 – 18 September 1929) was an architect who practiced in Edinburgh and Lothian.[1][2] His works include the Royal British Hotel and Lothian Chambers in Edinburgh.[1][3]

Early life edit

He was born in Dunkeld in 1852.[2] His parents were William Henry, an innkeeper and Isabella Henry.[2] He was their fourth son.[2]

Career edit

He was articled to Andrew Heiton in 1866 and stayed with him until 1872.[2] He moved to Edinburgh, having secured a place in the office of David Bryce, then worked on Blair Castle for John Stewart-Murray, 7th Duke of Atholl.[2] After the death of Bryce, he moved to the offices of John Charles Hay.[2] He set up his own practice in 1883.[2]

Thomas Forbes Maclennan became his assistant in 1894 and eventually went into partnership with him in 1905.[2] Henry seems to have acted as practice manager from this point.[2]
