He created many war cemeteries in Belgium and northern France for the Imperial War Graves Commission.
After working and training in Bolton and Manchester, Holden moved to London. His early buildings were influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement, but for most of his career he championed an unadorned style based on simplified forms and massing that was free of what he considered to be unnecessary decorative detailing.[note 1] Holden believed strongly that architectural designs should be dictated by buildings' intended functions. After the First World War, he increasingly simplified his style and his designs became pared-down and modernist, influenced by European architecture. He was a member of the Design and Industries Association and the Art Workers' Guild. He produced complete design

In August I visited William Rose Holden at his home overlooking Hove Park. We had been in email contact for several years but I hadn&#;t managed to meet him on his occasional visits to Upminster. William is not only the Patron of the Upminster Rectorship but the owner of the Holden family portraits, which used to hang in the Upminster Rectory. I had seen photographs of these portraits but at last got the opportunity to see the originals.
This pleasant visit was only short but it harks back to a remarkable unbroken sequence of almost two hundred years when five successive members of the Holden family served as Upminster&#;s Rectors, starting with the appointment of Rev John Rose Holden the elder in and ending with the retirement in of Rev Hyla Rose Holden &#; who was William&#;s uncle.
The Holden connection with Upminster dates from the purchase by William Holden a Birmingham merchant of the advowson of Upminster – the right to present to candidates to the living of Rector. William Holden had married Mary Rose, an heiress from Daventry in September , and although she died just four years later soon after giving birth, her maiden surname Rose lived on through successive generations of the family.
