Biography
John Prichard was born in Llangan, Glamorgan on 6 May 1817, the son of the rector Richard Prichard.[2]
He established a practice in Llandaff, Cardiff where he became the diocesan architect. Between 1852 and 1863 he set up a partnership with John Pollard Seddon. Many of his major commissions were restoration works, most famously for Llandaff Cathedral (1843–69); and after his death on 13 October 1886 Prichard was buried on the south side of that cathedral.
