| Losh never had any formal architectural training, but her style and her methods, Uglow writes, anticipated both the Ruskinian revolution and the Arts and Crafts movement. |
|
| Losh left little of herself beyond the stone, wood and glass of her astonishing church and a few other local structures a mausoleum, a cross, the schoolhouse, some cottages. |
|
| In 1807, Losh, Wilson and Bell opened the first alkali works in England that used the Leblanc process, at Walker, Newcastle upon Tyne. |
|
| In 1798 John Losh and the Earl of Dundonald took out a lease on a rich supply of brine pumped from a nearby coal mine, the Walker pit and this became their raw material. |
