History
Sidney William Prior (1895-1952) was an architect in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. He was born in Croydon, London, England, the son of William Edward Prior and his wife Alice Mildred (née Bigg). He emigrated to Australia with his family in 1909. Prior studied construction and drawing at the Brisbane Central Technical College in 1913 before serving in the First World War. He established his architectural practice in Brisbane in 1923. A large proportion of Prior's work was domestic, though he designed Hesketh House in Elizabeth Street, additions to the Jennings Rubber Company Building in Fortitude Valley and the Davies Park Speedway at Bowen Hills. In 1940 he designed the Redcliffe Town Council Chambers.
Prior died in Brisbane on Thursday 31 January 1952.
