John Harker writes: "I have stumbled across this article written by the late Professor David Hey in 2011. Some of you may recall that we invited him to be a speaker at our AGM several years ago at my suggestion, but tragically David died of a brain tumour before he could come to give us his talk. He was a keen rambler, supporter of the campaign for Open Access and an expert on the history of the moorlands in the National Park and the ancient routes that criss crossed them. He once told me that the off roaders regularly tried to persuade him to help them find evidence of historic roads that they could claim, but he would always refuse their offers of money." "His AGM talk at my request would have been about GHB "Bert" Ward "King of the Ramblers", one of our earliest members and, for a long time, the Society's only inspector east of the Pennines. PNFS benefitted from his estate about 15 years ago to the tune of £36,000. Footnote references to David Sissons refers to the Society's inspector David Sissons who covers some parishes in the National Park"
