		In fact, Knott himself died in 1929, a few years before he could see the Main Building complete, and a plaque to his memory was placed in the courtyard of the Hall.

		The LCC initially used the Spring Gardens headquarters of the Metropolitan Board of Works but by 1906 decided to buy three adjoining plots of land on the eastern side of Westminster Bridge as a site for a single headquarters.
		The County Hall designed by Ralph Knott was built there from 1909–1933 and passed into private ownership following the abolition of the Greater London Council.
		A London Residuary Body was appointed with the express purpose of managing the transfer of the assets of the GLC after 1985, making the task of re-establishing metropolitan authority rather more difficult for any post-Thatcher government.

		Sadly, Knott's pompous and all but desiccated neo-baroque design was, and remains, a heroic disappointment.
		A labour of late-flowering Edwardian earnestness, County Hall was opened by King George V and Queen Mary in 1922, although Knott's building was not completed until 1933, by which time its architect was four years in his grave.
		Knott's interiors - imposing, vaulted, polished, refined things of parquet floors and tunnel-like corridors - will not be bullied, even by the most two-fingers-up young British art.

		In 1908 the young architect Ralph Knott became the surprise winner of a competition to design a grand new home for the London county council.
		RHWL has also opened the former members' terrace on the river side of the building, Mann points out, and made it possible to enter the building from the Embankment as well as from the old main entrance on Belvedere Road running along the back of County Hall.
		This simple expedient makes Knott's conservative building a little more permeable, a little less stiff than it was in the past.

		The building's elegant Edwardian style design, complete with its colonnaded central structure, was actually the work of a young architect named Ralph Knott (who had previously only worked on far smaller projects).
		In addition, the building's original dimensions had to be altered to allow for extra LCC personnel (simply because the building works had taken so long to complete).
		Most unfortunate of all, Knott died after a short illness in 1929, meaning that he was unable to witness the final result of his efforts.
