University of Bristol professor found dead after hike in heat

Tributes have been paid to a university professor found dead after going missing on a mountain hike during a heatwave.

Gregor McLennan, 74, who was an emeritus professor in the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies at the University of Bristol, was found dead on Monday in Eryri, also know as Snowdonia.

North Wales Police said he was found on the mountain Carnedd Y Filiast after extensive searches. His death is not thought to be suspicious.

Professor Judith Squires, Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Provost at the University of Bristol, said: “His intellectual generosity, rigour, and commitment to public debate left a lasting impact on students, peers, and the wider discipline.”
