  John Nash, Regency Architect
John Nash (1752-1835) was the son of a millwright, but he cast aside his father's profession and apprenticed with architect Sir Robert Taylor.
Nash was dillatory in his work however (and erected and pulled down several wings of the building according to his moods), that the Prince Regent died before work was finished.
Nash was finally dismissed from the project, and all that remains of his work at the palace is the west wing.

Nash was undoubtedly the senior of the two and his annual salary of £200 was also to cover Morgan's salary.
Nash was a large shareholder in the canal company and his influence undoubtedly led to the appointment of Morgan as the company's Engineer.
