Treadwell & Martin was an architectural firm established by Henry John Treadwell (1861-1910) and Leonard Martin (1869-1935) in London in 1890.
The practice was responsible for leaving a "trail of remarkable little buildings across London's West End" [Edwardian Architecture: A Biographical Dictionary' by A. Stuart Gray (London: Gerald Duckworth & Co. Ltd., 1985 p.353).
Photographs of the entrance hall of 'Pyports' in Cobham, Surrey, a dining room fireplace at Cobham, and the drawing room and dining room fireplaces at 'The Lych Gate House', Cobham, designed by Treadwell & Martin, are illustrated in 'The Studio Yearbook of Decorative Art' 1907 (pp.74, 113, 114, 115).
The Treadwell & Martin partnership was dissolved following the death of Treadwell in 1910.
