History

He was born in 1824 in Stone in Staffordshire, the son of Thomas and Sarah Bakewell. He started practice in Nottingham in Thurland Street in the late 1850s.

In 1874 he entered into partnership with his nephew Albert Nelson Bromley who had formerly been his pupil. He retired in 1876 when the partnership was dissolved[2] and lived in The Elms, Beeston in Nottingham and also in Lincoln until his death in Norwich on 31 October 1881.
