He oversaw preparation of plans for the Higher Education Precinct, for the Arndale shopping centre and for the development of Hulme, where Park Hill's principles of design proved less readily transferable to a flat site. In the late 1960s Lynn returned to the North East of England, working on the development of Newcastle University's campus and forming Kendrick and Lynn Associates, designing various Roman Catholic churches.
