Rowland De Winton Aldridge (1906–1997) was a British architect, architectural historian and artist. He was born in Kent and named in honour of his great grandmother, Catherine Rebecca de Winton, a member of the Parry de Winton engineering family.[1]
An authority on the architecture of the 18th century, Aldridge was an important influence on his close friend, newspaper owner the 2nd Baron Iliffe, during Iliffe's complete restoration of Basildon Park.[2][3]
Aldridge was a protegee of Edward Wesson, one of the most "outstanding" watercolour artists of the 20th century.[4] During the mid-20th century, Aldrige was a prolific artist of landscapes, seascapes and urban riverscapes. He usually signed his work "R Winton Aldridge".
