Within a hundred years the Barnsley family became aristocracy and war-dead (as well as architects, furniture makers, silversmiths, fruit growers and medical advisers to Royalty), and built the Hall of Memory at what is now Centenary Square.

He was articled to the London architect Norman Shaw, a pioneer of the ‘Old English’ vernacular revival who emphasised the subtleties of craft detailing. In his working methods, Sidney Barnsley exemplified Ruskin’s ideal of the craftsman who thought, the thinker who crafted: ‘the worker ought often to be thinking and the thinker often to be working’. In character he was more diffident and high minded, more solitary and intellectual than the other members of the group. His younger collaborator Norman Jewson later described how Sidney lived by high ideals, to the extent that “austerity was almost a religion”; he preferred to make his furniture entirely on his own, without assistance, rather than to design for other craftsmen.” m.

Generally known simply as Ernest Barnsley, he became a prominent Arts and Crafts architect-craftsman in the Cotswolds, working in association with his younger brother Sidney Barnsley (born 1865) and Ernest Gimson in Sapperton, Gloucestershire.
