Thomas Francis Ord Rippingham (29 January 1896 – 17 December 1964) was an English-born architect who spent most of his professional life in Northern Ireland, mainly working for the Northern Ireland Civil Service (NICS). T.F.O. Rippingham worked on many projects and designs which have become part of the Ulster landscape. One of his most characteristic and well known designs was that for the police stations which were built throughout Northern Ireland in the years following the creation in 1921 of Northern Ireland as a separate polity, following the Partition of Ireland.
