Frederick Ernest Cleary (1905–1984) was a Chartered Surveyor and property entrepreneur from Crouch End, London. He was an environmentalist, conservationist and philanthropist. He was the founder of Haslemere Estates, a London-based development company, that spearheaded projects that generally went against the grain of the time(1958-1984). For example, he was involved in restoring existing buildings rather than demolishing them; he also helped find alternatives to glass and concrete edifices that were known to have a much greater environmental cost. His philanthropic activities included the founding of two charitable trusts; The Cleary Foundation (1953) and The Bay Trust (1969), an environmental education charity. Within the City of London, he gained the pseudonym 'Flowering Fred' for his philanthropic activity in establishing, maintaining and enhancing over 150 green spaces in inner London. He was the author of three books Beauty and the Borough, I'll Do it Yesterday
and The Flowering City.
