George Caleb Hedgeland (1825–1898)[1] was a British designer of stained glass windows in the 19th century. He was the son of the architect John Pike Hedgeland and worked from a studio in London in the 1850s. His work, which was displayed at the Great Exhibition in 1851, was characterised by the use of bold designs. His career was short, as ill-health led to a move to Australia in 1860.[2]
In Australia, Hedgeland worked as a surveyor in New South Wales from 1871.[3]
Hedgeland married Annie Shrapnell Henning, sister of Rachel Henning, at St Mark's, Darling Point on 24 January 1866.[9][10]
He died of influenza on 28 September 1898 at Ryde and was buried at Field of Mars Cemetery, Ryde.[11][12]
