John West Hugall FRIBA (c. 1806 – 30 October 1880) was an English Gothic Revival architect from Yorkshire.
Hugall's works span the period 1848–78.[4] He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1871.[4]
He spent an early part of his career in Pontefract, Yorkshire.[5] While there, he was Secretary of the Yorkshire Architectural Society[5] (now the Yorkshire Architectural and York Archaeological Society).[6] He co-wrote two books with the Rev. G.A. Poole: The Churches of Scarborough, Filey, And The Neighbourhood (1848) and An Historical & Descriptive Guide to York Cathedral and Its Antiquities (1850).
Hugall seems to have moved his practice to Cheltenham by about 1850[7] and to Reading and Oxford by 1871.[4]
