Martin Andrews

Categories: Gardens / Agriculture

Our colleague Andew Behan writes: A little research on this man shows that he was born Martin Guy Leslie Andrews in 1943 in Lambeth. Alumnus and long-term supporter of Goodenough College. He was a chartered architect and also a company director of Thornton Investment Co. Ltd. He died, aged 69 years on 26 August 2012 and had been living at the time at both 19/20 Doughty Mews, WC1 and 19 The Causeway, Horsham, West Sussex. He left the Doughty Mews house, which had been his home for many years, to nearby Goodenough College.

The Spring 2013 issue of Goodenough News has tributes from many of Andrews' friends.
