Ivan Hall

Ivan Hall FSA is a British architectural historian specialising in the architecture of John Carr. He was born in Manchester and attended Manchester Grammar School and Manchester University.

He initially read architecture as a contemporary of Donald Buttress and intended to be a restoration architect, but later changed subject to art history. He worked as an academic at Hull University but spent later years working for English Heritage in London. He campaigned [1] with his wife Elisabeth Hall to preserve historic buildings and their environments.

His published works include:

• Historic Beverley,[2]
• Georgian Hull[3]
• John Carr of York, Architect, A Pictorial Survey.[4]
