Founders

They operated the business as New Land Owner Management Services Ltd. registered in April 2000, though since dissolved.

Before long, Robert began farming part-time whilst offering his consultancy to new land owners.

Having ample experience also in agricultural permitted development projects, David began advising on all things rural planning and specialised in acquiring consent in difficult cases.
