Peter F. B. Alsop (original) (raw)

Peter Findon Bethune Alsop (13 June 1935 – 6 September 2014) was an Australian engineer and historian from Geelong, Victoria. He was responsible for researching and preserving many important road bridges and historic buildings in Geelong and the Victorian Western District. Alsop was an engineer with the Country Roads Board for the Geelong District. While in that position, he argued successfully in a number of cases, that new, improved road alignments should be provided when historic bridges were to be replaced, which would save the bridge at the same time.
