Ronald Hubert Sims (30 March 1923 – 1999) was a British architect and artist. Influential in the Bournemouth area, he is best known for designing the Punshon Memorial Church[1] which earned him the R.I.B.A. bronze medal in 1958.[2][3] The church was demolished in 2015.[4] In the 1960s, he designed the Broadmead Baptist Church in Bristol - it remains standing and is a fine example of Brutalist architecture.[5]
As well as his practical architectural work, he also spent a number of years teaching as a Professor of Architecture in Lincoln, Nebraska; Austin, Texas; and Waterloo, Ontario.
