Biography

Henry Hill was the second surviving son of Thomas Hill,[1] and along with his elder brother William Hill was half of the founding generation of the dynasty of the Hill family of architects.[2][3] In the next generation, his son, Arthur Hill, along with William's son William Henry Hill, and another of his nephews, Arthur Richard Hill, all became architects.[1] Arthur Hill's son, Henry Houghton Hill and William Henry Hill's son -also called William Henry Hill- would both go on to become architects as well. Henry Houghton Hill was also the father of Michelin star chef Myrtle Allen, making her Henry Hill's great-granddaughter.[4]
