Ignatius Bonomi

Ignatius Bonomi was an English architect and surveyor.

Ignatius Bonomi was Inspector of Bridges in County Durham, and his work included Skerne Bridge; one of the first railway bridges in Britain over the River Skerne, near Darlington for the Stockton and Darlington Railway in 1824 (hence he is sometimes referred to as "the first railway architect"). He was also responsible for a number of church buildings, historic buildings in the Gothic and Neoclassical styles.
