For lists of works by the practice during other periods, and the non-ecclesiastical works by Austin and Paley, see Lists of works by Sharpe, Paley and Austin

Austin, Paley and Austin was the title of a practice of architects in Lancaster, Lancashire, England, for a short period in 1914–15. The practice had been founded in 1836 by Edmund Sharpe. The architects during the period covered by this list are Hubert Austin, Henry Paley and Hubert Austin's son, Geoffrey. Henry Paley had joined the practice as a partner in 1886 when his father, E. G. Paley, was Austin's partner ; the practice the became known as Paley, Austin and Paley. E. G. Paley died in 1895 and the practice continued under the title of Austin and Paley. Austin's son joined the practice as a partner in 1914 and the title of the practice became Austin, Paley and Austin. Hubert Austin died in 1915 while Geoffrey Austin was in active service in the First World War and the practice then continued with Henry Paley as the single principal.[1]

Only the following four works have been identified by Price as having been executed by the practice during the time between Geoffrey Austin's joining it and Hubert Austin's death.[2]
