George James Miller (1902–1940) was a Scottish architect, specialising in hospitals.




Life


He was born in Glasgow in 1902 the son of James Miller, architect, and his wife Emilina Henrietta Crichton.
Miller was sent to boarding school in Edinburgh, being educated at Fettes College. He then studied art and architecture at St John's College, Cambridge. Returning to Glasgow around 1924 he was apprenticed in his father's office at 15 Blythswood Square and did further studies at the Royal Technical College in Glasgow. Around 1932 he obtained a post as an assistant architect in the office of Sir Herbert Baker in South Africa. In 1936 he returned to Glasgow to allow his father to step down and the company was renamed James Miller & Son.
He died on 14 May 1940 after a brief illness, at which point his father wound up the practice. He was buried in Hillfoot Cemetery in Bearsden, Glasgow.
