Arthur Frederick Davies, was the third child of John Henry Davies, born when the family had moved to Seller Street. He followed his father and elder brother into the family’s architectural practice, as seen in the 1881 census, where he is described as an “architect’s assistant”. On the death of his brother Richard Cecil in 1917, Arthur became the sole remaining partner of the family’s architectural practice. He retained this position until his death in 1926, only bringing his own son into the practice and restricting other family members from joining.
