Wholly inadequate stub for the town's most important architect. Needs work. I find internet searches on him very unproductive - apart from MonmouthpediA articles. Other ideas? — Preceding unsigned comment added by KJP1 (talk • contribs) 22:47, 17 January 2012‎

Ask at the museum? They are helping us - I'll slot in a market hall picture on this so you can see Victuallers (talk) 23:28, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If he built Pentwyn in 1834-37, and 8 Monk St in 1839 (Newman), it's surely not quite accurate to say that he lived at Monk St "at the time"? Do we know the chronology? Did he live at Monk St, then at Pentwyn, then back at Monk St after he rebuilt it - or did he have a town house and a country house? Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:29, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, I've no idea. The Directory of British Architects entry is very scant: The year and place of his birth, the date and place of his death, and that's it. He seems to be a very undocumented architect. Will keep searching. KJP1 (talk)

The Register of Electors 1846/7 shows George Vaughan Maddox as living at North Parade, Monk Street, which is on the opposite side of the road to 8/10 Monk Street. Doesn't really help. KJP1 (talk) 10:38, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, indeed. This is where information from the local museum may be the best source. But, if it's not published, it may not be a reliable source - one of the problems inherent in locally-based projects like this, I think. Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:39, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Courtfield, Welsh Bicknor

Charles Heath suggests Maddox as the architect, and the Hendre connection makes this plausible? [1] But GM or GVM? KJP1 (talk) 14:18, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
