Peter F. B. Alsop (died 6 September 2014) was an engineer and historian in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. He was responsible for researching and preserving many important road bridges and historic buildings in Geelong and the Victorian Western District.〔(Geelong & district blog, Susie Zada, 'Peter F B Alsop', 17 September 2014 )〕 Alsop was an engineer with the Country Roads Board for the Geelong District, and while in this position argued successfully in a number of cases, that new improved road alignments were needed where bridges were to be replaced, and that this would incidentally save an historic bridge at the same time. Alsop was on the committee of Engineering Heritage Victoria (which later was merged with the Institution of Engineers Australia), and the National Trust of Australia (Victoria). Alsop was president of the Geelong Historical Society from 1984–2007〔(''Geelong Advertiser'' Obituaries 20/09/2014 )〕 His large corpus of publications has been indexed and referenced by the State Library of Victoria. ==Awards== The Council of Deakin University approved in June 2014 that: ''the honorary degree of Master of Science be awarded to Mr Peter Alsop''.〔(DEAKIN UNIVERSITY COUNCIL Meeting 3, 2014 Wednesday 25 June 2014 )〕 The ''Geelong Historical Society Peter F B Alsop Occasional Lecture'' was created in 2007 in his honour.〔(AUS-VIC-GEELONG-DISTRICT-L Archives 2007-10 )〕 Alsop was awarded the 2008 Royal Historical Society of Victoria Awards of Merit.〔(Royal Historical Society of Victoria Inc.
