Subject: Where to find information?

Hi Listers,
I wonder if anyone can advise. I am researching two names at the moment:
SIR JOHN ROBERTS and JOHN KINGWELL COLE.

Sir John Roberts was a draper, or at least owned drapers stores e.g. Roberts
of Stratford, and apparently did a lot of charitable work one was giving the
Woodford Memorial Hall in memory of his brother Thomas. He gave the job of
architect for this project to JOHN KINGWELL COLE and I would like to find
more information. I found a website for the hall and emailed them but no
response, could anyone tell me where any records would be held?

JOHN KINGWELL COLE was also the architect for Woodford Cottage Hospital.
Does this hospital still exist and if not where would I find more information.

Thanks
Sally Malyon
