Ingress Bell

Edward Ingress Bell (1837–1914) was an English architect of the late 19th century, and early 20th century, who worked for many years with Sir Aston Webb.

Bell was born in Ingress Park, Greenhithe, Kent, and had already undertaken commissions before he entered into partnership with Webb. The Victoria Law Courts in Birmingham was the first major public building they jointly undertook. He died in East Preston, Sussex.
