Yes, Peter was the author, and he also sponsored a corresponding ALGOL68 
subset.  My “history of Algol” web site has information here:

https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/ALGOL/algol68impl/#ALGOL_68S

In particular, there is a snapshot with binaries and some assembler files here:

https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Applications/Algol_68/
 <https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Applications/Algol_68/>

and a later rewrite by C. H. Lindsey in the Amsterdam Compiler Kit here:

See my web site cited above for additional information, papers, and 
documentation.
