About Charles Worley

Lived 1853 – 1906 (aged 52–53). Charles Worley was an architect.

Charles H Worley (1853–1906) was a British architect.

Early life Allinson puts forward that Charles Worley was the son of the architect Robert James Worley (1850–1930), of the architectural practice Worley & Saunders, who was "involved in all kinds of speculative developments". They are listed jointly as the architects of 41 Harley Street. However, as Robert was born in 1850, and Charles was articled in 1870, a father and son relationship is most improbable. This is supported by the fact that Charles Worley was the son of Joshua Worley, a shipbroker based in London, as per his marriage certificate to Ellen Lambert Hall which took place on 22 August 1878 in the Holy Trinity Church, Marylebone, Lambeth, London.

English Heritage also confirm, probably incorrectly that Robert and Charles were brothers.
