About Thomas Chambers Hine
Lived 1814 – 1899 (aged 84–85). Thomas Chambers Hine was a British architect.
Thomas Chambers Hine (31 May 1813 – 6 February 1899) was an architect based in Nottingham.
Background
He was born in Covent Garden into a prosperous middle-class family, the eldest son of Jonathan Hine (1780–1862), a hosiery manufacturer and Melicent Chambers (1778–1845). He was articled to the London architect Matthew Habershon until 1834.
In 1837 he arrived in Nottingham and formed a partnership with the builder William Patterson. This business relationship was dissolved in 1849. He worked from 1857 with Robert Evans JP until early in 1867 and thereafter with his son George Thomas Hine until his retirement around 1890.
He was nominated as a Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1878, but this appears to have been voided.
Personal life
He married Mary Betts (1813–1893) in 1837 and together had seven children surviving to adulthood. Their eldest child, Mary Melicent Hine (1838–1928) became a nurse and founded the Nottingham Children's Hospital on Postern Street in Nottingham.
