Obituary: John Macmillan FCIOB

John Macmillan was a well-known character in construction and spent his latter career working for Bovis and Mace in London.

He was particularly proud of his involvement with Broadgate, Cable & Wireless’s HQ in Red Lion Square and Waterloo/Liverpool Street Stations. The Fleetwood wine bar in Broadgate at the time was nicknamed ‘The Fleetwood Mac’ as the favoured watering hole for John and his colleagues.

He was a proud Scot, member of the Caledonian Club, a lover of jazz and fond of painting. One of his greatest achievements was raising over £1m for the children’s services at St Bart’s Hospital in London through the generosity of many who attended the Trade Contractors Burns Suppers.
