The Hayward Gallery is an art gallery within the South Bank Centre, situated on the South Bank of the River Thames, in central London, England.
It was designed by the Department of Architecture and Civic Design of the Greater London Council, and is named after Sir Isaac Hayward, a former leader of the London County Council, the GLC's predecessor.

Age is against Hayward and, though he did not say so explicitly, had Wolves not won in Cardiff, his enthusiasm may have sustained an irreparable puncture.

 Sir Nigel Gresley
His grandfather was Sir William Nigel Gresley, ninth baronet.(Hughes writes at considerable lengh about the Gresley family history).

 FOX, Sir William - 1966 Encyclopaedia of New Zealand
William Fox was the third son of George Townshend Fox, of Durham, a deputy lieutenant of the county, and was born on 20 January 1812 at Westoe, near South Shields, Durham.
The Colonial Office draft, based on the proposals of Sir George Grey, was the basis of the Act passed in 1852, but Fox was probably responsible for the addition of Taranaki to the five provinces Grey had proposed to create.
When Waterhouse found himself unable to work with Vogel and resigned on 3 March 1873, Fox, at the urgent request of Governor Sir George Bowen, agreed to assume the premiership for a few weeks, but only to keep the seat warm for Vogel, who was absent from the colony.
