text:
Peter Ellis (1805–1884) was a British architect and inventor of the paternoster lift from Liverpool. He is best-known for designing Oriel Chambers, built in 1864, which is the world's first building to feature a metal-framed glass curtain wall. For this achievement he appears in the Guinness Book of Records. From the mid-1840s he lived at 40 Falkner Square, a house which he designed and on which an English Heritage Blue Plaque is now sited.
