You’re quite right. Brothers Arthur and Ernest Cooper were both Presidents of ICAEW. They were also partners in the Victorian firm Cooper Brothers. Another Victorian accountant Edwin Waterhouse, also an ICAEW President, joined forces with Samuel Price. Later the firms they had founded become part of what is now PWC.

Sorry about that – we were overwhelmed with visitors at a couple of points. Do come back next year.

Those are lovely pictures. It’s the first time we have been able to open the hall for Open House Weekend since the pandemic (and building works) and are really glad that we could – and that so many people enjoyed it. For those who couldn’t get around, the virtual tour you mentioned is well worth looked at.
