Thank you Lynne,
found him there as surveyor and architect of
LLANDEVAUD, St. Peter (1842-1843)   Monmouthshire
NEWPORT, Holy Trinity, Pillgwenlly (1851-1853)   Monmouthshire

and there is a reference for him in
H.M. Colvin, A Biographical dictionary of British architects 1600-1840 (1995)

I also understand he was architect of the Newport Barracks. If anyone can confirm that I would be really grateful.

AH :D

Thanks Steve,
Every little bit helps and it confirms him as operating a business including other enterprises. It's all a jigsaw and any new piece is welcome.

Monmouthshire / John Harris LANGDON - Architect. Newport
« on: Sunday 26 September 10 17:30 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
researching  John Harris LANGDON, d 1853, Newport. 

1851 census - Stow Hill, aged 73.

Recorded as an architect of churches in Monmouthshire and other notable buildings.
Does anyone know where I can go for records, plans or archived materials that can confirm his business or his family life in the area? 
 
Thank you,
Aunt Harriet....
 :)
