Charles Henry Bourne Quennell (1872–1935), was an English architect, designer, illustrator and historian. According to the heritage architect Cath Layton, "his great influence [as an architect and urban planner] can be felt in the houses and streets of London’s suburbs and across the country."[1] His obituary in Nature noted that his books for children and young people had "strongly stimulated interest in the cultural background of the more formal study of history".[2]
