John Godwin and Gillian Hopwood
John Godwin and Gillian Hopwood moved to Nigeria from the U.K. in 1954, first working for a London-based architectural firm before starting their own practice in Lagos eighteen months later. Both John and Gillian have written and lectured in Nigeria and overseas. Their first publication was Sailing in Lagos, a history of the Lagos Yacht Club from 1932-1982, which also includes a Nigerian chronology of that period.
