Kenneth Rowntree is a British Romanticism artist. 23 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Kenneth Rowntree painted quiet British places in watercolour around 1940, from barn-stacked Essex fields to the carved oak pews of Caernarvonshire chapels. His brush traced the Livermore Tombs in Barnston, the roofless cloister at Tilty, and the bellringer’s room in Clare’s church—each sheet a snapshot of stone and light. Peer next at Underbank Farm in Derbyshire, where whitewashed walls stand against rolling fields.
