We’ve been at the forefront of planning and development in the UK since the company was founded in 1962. And now, half a century later, we’re the most successful consultancy in the field.
1962-2017
Town planning was a very new discipline when Nathaniel Lichfield set the company up. He was a pioneering economist and town planner, and the business was soon advising government, local authorities, and private clients on some of the country’s most significant projects – from new towns and airports, to the country’s first regional shopping centre, and the world’s most famous stadium.
These days we offer practical and robust planning support for house builders, commercial developers, and local authorities as well as land owners and investors. Thanks to our expertise, landmarks, visitor attractions, complex infrastructure projects, and tens of thousands of homes are built every year.
