Born in Winforton, Hertfordshire, England, Tringham moved to Wellington and established himself as an architect, his marriage elevated his social status and he went onto design grand buildings for high-profile individuals such as the Queen Margaret College Tower for Thomas Coldham Williams and Westoe for Sir William Fox. Tringham later served as president of the Wellington Association of Architects before retiring to the Wairarapa as a farmer. From 1867 to 1890 Tringham was responsible for over 330 designs. Several of Tringham's surviving works have heritage registration.
