Our History
Where we come from
Since starting life as a rural practice in Cambridgeshire in 1839, we’ve learnt a lot about realising value from land and property. Like many of our clients, we’ve always taken a long-term view of the world, while operating at the leading edge of innovation.
However, we also hold true to our rural beginnings. Today we manage huge parts of the English and Scottish countryside and coastline, advising clients on maximising opportunities in agriculture, renewables and forestry – asset classes that consistently outperform equities and bonds.
Across the country we are, as ever, focussing on helping solve the world’s biggest problems such as combating climate change by working with our science-led clients to find nature-based solutions to offset and sequester carbon and deliver environmental net gain.
