Ken Baker, MKDC Architect

Ken Baker had worked for a while at Smithsons Architects in Kensington, with Chris Woodward. Stuart Mosscrop, who had known Chris at AA (the Architectural Association), had been employed by Derek Walker to be the architect for Central Milton Keynes (CMK), and invited Chris (who by then had left Smithsons) to join his team. Chris was still in contact with Ken, and recommended him to Stuart to join the CMK team; there was now quite a ‘North London contingent’ commuting daily to MK.
