1875-1908. Born in Maida Vale. He was appointed as architect for UERL in 1903. He was commissioned to design 50 stations on what became the Piccadilly, Bakerloo and Northern Lines. They all had a similar look with two storeys, a steel frame and decorated with ox-blood red glazed terracotta bricks. The interiors had green and white tiles. Green was also responsible for directional signs, ticket windows and tiling at platform level. Many of these stations still exist, though many of the features have been re-furbished or replaced.
