Gabriel designed parish churches for the Church of England and houses for private clients.
One of Gabriel's last commissions was Ashley House in Bristol for Sir Charles Wathen.[6] Wathen served as Mayor of Bristol and contributed to the building of several of its public buildings.[6] In 2008 there was a proposal to demolish Ashley House[6] and SAVE Britain's Heritage responded by supporting a campaign for the building's retention.[6]

gollark: I did not expect you to actually go write a compiler, but... well, it seems in character for you.
gollark: Ah yes, that thing.
gollark: The thing a while ago with a something to Lua compiler?
gollark: What's this in response to?
gollark: So my search thing seems to be handling the tens of megabytes of slowly downloading esolangs.org data somewhat well, in that queries which don't have any results in it run fine. On the other hand, I didn't add any pagination and it would be quite hard to given how the search algorithm works, so looking for stuff like "the" is slow. And the search algorithm is terrible at looking up specific phrases.
