Eila Campbell

Eila Muriel Joice Campbell (15 December 1915 – 12 July 1994) was an English geographer and cartographer.

[2] She worked closely with Eva Germaine Rimington Taylor, supporting publication of her final book and establishing a lecture in her name.

She was made a lecturer in 1948, reader in 1963[4] and in 1970 became a full professor and the head of the geography department at the college.

[1] Campbell was chosen by Henry Clifford Darby to jointly edit his book, Domesday Geography of England, to which she also contributed.

[8] Hoonaard reports that Campbell's topic of research was becoming unfashionable in her later life and that after her death on 12 July 1994, courses on the history of cartography disappeared from the University of London's curriculum and replaced with courses which instead focused on quantitative techniques.
