Worthington, Thomas & Son 1893 - 1919

Thomas Worthington & Son [also known as T. Worthington & Son;  Thos. Worthington & Son; and as Thomas & Percy S. Worthington] was architectural partnership formed in Manchester, England by Thomas Worthington (1826-1909) and his son Percy Scott Worthington (1864-1939) in 1893.

Architectural projects by the firm included the Halifax Royal Infirmery in Halifax, North Riding, and several other hospitals; the Ullet Road Unitarian Chapel in Sefton Park, Salford (1896-99); the Hall and Memorial Passage in Sefton Park, Salford (1902); various buildings for Manchester University, including the Faculty of Arts building (1911-19); the Masonic Temple on Bridge Street, Manchester (1929).

Thomas Worthington & Son was also engaged on smaller projects -  'The Studio Yearbook of Decorative Art' 1906 contains a photograph of a hammered iron and brass basket grate (p.87) and a drawing of a hammered iron basket grate (p.90) which they designed. Following the retirement of Thomas Worthington in 1907, the practice was continued by Percy Scott Worthington and John Herbert Worthington (1886-1963) and Thomas Shirley Scott Worthington (1900-1981).

Despite the death of Worthington senior in 1909, the title of the firm was retained until 1919 when another son, John Hubert Worthington (1886-1963) joined the practice and it became Thomas Worthington and Sons.   Percy Scott Worthington's son Thomas Shirley Scott Worthington (1900-1981) joined the firm in 1927 and became a partner in 1945.  The practice was dissolved in 2017
