 Peter Reid - Telegraph
Peter Reid, the architectural historian who has died aged 70, was an unsung hero of country-house conservation, a genealogical genius and an endearing eccentric with a capacity to inspire both affection and exasperation.
Reid's pioneering researches helped to lay the foundation of "The Destruction of the Country House" exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1974, which made a phenomenal impact and effectively kick-started the "Heritage" movement, as it is known today.
Later in the 1970s, Reid compiled the second volume of Burke's Guide to Country Houses, edited by Hugh MontgomeryMassingberd, a ground-breaking, if over-ambitious, series designed to give a visual, architectural and social record of some 12,000 family seats, standing and demolished, in a dozen volumes, which, as things turned out, ran to only four.
