Alfred Waterhouse (19 July 1830 – 22 August 1905) was a British architect particularly associated with the Victorian Gothic Revival architecture. He is perhaps best known for his design for Manchester Town Hall and the Natural History Museum in London although he also built a wide variety of other buildings throughout the country. Financially speaking Waterhouse was probably the most successful of all Victorian architects.
