Grayson and Ould was the title of an architectural practice in Liverpool, Merseyside, England, during the late 19th and early 20th century. The partners were George Enoch Grayson (1833/4–1912) (usually known as G. E. Grayson) and Edward Ould (1852–1909). Grayson's son, George Hastwell Grayson (1871–1951), joined the partnership in 1896.[1] G. E. Grayson had been articled to Jonathan Gilliband Sale, and then studied on the Continent. In 1857 he established an independent architectural practice in Liverpool.[2] Ould had trained with John Douglas in Chester.[3] The two architects formed a partnership in 1886; prior to this each designed notable buildings separately. After 1886 most of the notable works were designed together. Grayson's son, George Hastwell Grayson (1871–1951), joined the partnership in 1896.[1]
