Life

He was born on 11 August 1826 in Radford, Nottingham, the son of John Weston (1796-1843) and Sarah Beeston (1796-1856).

He married Francis Taylor (1825-1909) in 1850 in Nottingham and they had the following children

From the 1850s he was in partnership with Richard Stevenson in the building firm of Stevenson and Weston, but there was a legal case following financial irregularities around the construction of the Albert Hall, Nottingham in 1874 [1] and the partnership with Stevenson folded in 1876. [2]

In the 1871 census he refers to his occupation as builder, but by the 1881 census it is architect. By 1901 he is living at 12 Bayley Street (now Collington Street), Beeston.
