Francis Webster

Francis Webster (1767–1827) was an architect who worked in Kendal, Westmorland, England. He has been described as "the first to introduce the public profession of architecture into Kendal".

Webster's family had been masons and marble polishers. He arrived in the town in about 1787 and by the end of the century he was designing houses. During the early 19th century, he designed a new Meeting House for the town's Quakers, and was also involved with the promotion and building of the Lancaster Canal which reached Kendal in 1819.
