We take great pride in the quality of our work, which we believe is reflected in the number of repeat clients and long-term collaborations. Some of the recent client testimonials are below.
"Paul has provided us with heritage support for over 12 years and has been an important part to the success of our schemes, from advising on land acquisitions through to providing expert witness evidence at planning inquires.
He is responsive to our requests for support, approachable in style and knowledgeable on all heritage matters."
Stuart Goodwill,
Managing Director,
Planning Issues, Churchill Living
"I have worked with Paul for several years in both the retirement and care sectors. He has an extremely pragmatic approach and is very much solution orientated when it comes to assessments for planning.
Most recently he has been very responsive in providing last minute reports on sites where heritage assessment requirements have come from left-field resulting in us being able to quickly overcome consultee objections and concerns"
Luke Brittain,
Development Director,
Barcroft Estates
“Paul’s heritage advice has been fundamental to the success of many schemes. Paul is very easy to work with and has a ‘can -do’ approach to project challenges.”
Paul Barton, Director,
Harris Lamb Property Consultancy
‘’Paul has supported Anglo Renewables on heritage and archaeology matters for renewables energy projects over several years, and significantly contributed to our successful outcomes, particular when addressing matters at appeal.’’
James Stone,
Managing Director,
Anglo Renewables Ltd
“Paul assisted us with a Hearing Appeal, providing expert witness evidence dealing with the primary issue of our proposed development of flats on two adjacent Grade II Listed Buildings. Paul successfully addressed both the Heritage balance and the impact on the Townscape, and as a result the Appeal was Allowed. This was particularly impressive given a previous dismissed Appeal that pre-dated Paul's involvement.”
Innes Gray, Director
Visao Ltd
"I have worked with Paul on a wide variety of projects, big and small, over the years. These have ranged from sensitive Listed Building conversion schemes, through to providing the historic environment expert input on major developments. He is an excellent historic environment consultant, a very good communicator, and always adds value to projects."
Philip Staddon, Director
PJS Development Solutions Limited
