Professor M. W. Beresford (1920-2005) had an abiding interest in the evidence of maps for reconstructing the appearance of the English countryside in the past, which led to several reference publications. He was also a Professor of Economic History in the University of Leeds, and the first Chairman of the School of Economic Studies. J.G. Hurst (1927-2003) was the Inspector of Ancient Monuments for the Ministry of Public Building and Works, a founding member of the Society for Medieval Archaeology and President of the Society for Post-Medieval Archaeology.
