Lord Henry Chilver

There have been a  number of media obituaries of the former Vice Chancellor of Cranfield University Henry Chilver, who died last month.  The  Lord Henry Chilver obituary in the Guardian charts the life and achievements of the man who made Cranfield a national name in higher education and advanced research. One resident at the bloghouse  who worked at the uni from 1982 onwards remembers him as a very visible presence walking down Prince Philip Avenue from Cayley lodge every morning to the main campus. There will be a localised obituary in Cranfield Express, Petewilling,  at the end of this month.
