Edward Frampton (1845-1928)

Stained glass designer. Edward Reginald Frampton worked with Clayton and Bell in the late 1860s, and designed windows made by Heaton, Butler & Bayne. He was briefly in partnership with W.F. Dixon and Charles Hean in the mid-late 1870s. He had established his studio on Buckingham Palace Road, London by 1881. His work is especially plentiful in North Wales, and, given his huge west window at the Church of St John the Baptist in Chester, it appears that he probably worked in close association with the Chester architect John Douglas.

His son, also Edward Reginald Frampton, was also an artist, and designed a smaller number of windows.

The dates given for the artist in the Journal of the British Society of Master Glass-Painters obituary are at variance with other sources.
