  Title: B. H. St. John O'Neill
  Passage: Bryan Hugh St. John O’Neill (7 August 1905 – 24 October 1954), was Chief Inspector of Ancient Monuments in the Ministry of Works.  In 1939 he married Helen Donovan of Bourton-on-the-Water, who was noted for her work on Gloucestershire archaeology.  As an Inspector of Ancient Monuments he wrote or commissioned authoritative guide books to ancient monuments of all periods.  He specialised in medieval castles.  One of the guide books he wrote was on Dartmouth Castle, where the ‘Guntower’ building of 1481 and 1495 is the earliest surviving English coastal fortress specifically built to carry guns.  This gave him a great interest in the development of early artillery fortification, in which he became a leading expert.  His book "Castles and Cannon; A study of Early Artillery Fortifications in England", has become a standard work.  This was published in 1960, six years after his premature death at the age of 49.  He also wrote on the coastal castles of the Gold Coast as well as studying the defences of Tangiers and Rhodes.
  Title: Scheduled monuments in Coventry
  Passage: There are ten scheduled monuments in Coventry.  In the United Kingdom, a scheduled monument is a "nationally important" archaeological site or historic building that has been given protection against unauthorised change by being placed on a list (or "schedule") by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport; English Heritage takes the leading role in identifying such sites.  Monuments are defined in the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 and the National Heritage Act 1983.  Scheduled monuments—sometimes referred to as scheduled ancient monuments—can also be protected through listed building procedures, and English Heritage considers listed building status to be a better way of protecting buildings and standing structures.  A scheduled monument that is later determined to "no longer merit scheduling" can be descheduled.
