Case Study: Outwood Common

The Outwood Common project exemplifies our commitment to excellence. Found approximately 147 metres from Broomwood Lane, this Old Manor is surrounded by a tranquil green belt with a single three-storey residential neighbour. We transformed this expansive 10,799 square metre site into a breathtaking six-bedroom residence. The design features three elegant gables, a front-facing balcony, and a thoughtfully designed single-storey rear extension with a central courtyard. By seamlessly blending Georgian period aesthetics with contemporary rear elements, we enhanced the property’s visual appeal while meeting all local regulatory standards. Outwood Common is a testament to our commitment to high standards in architectural services.

Point Cloud Surveying

Light Detection and Ranging (RIDA), more commonly known as 3D laser scanning, is a non-contact technology that allows the shape of physical objects to be digitally captured using a line of laser light forming ‘point clouds’ of data from the surface of an object. The technology has its origins in airbourne submarine detection but applications for architecture and construction are becoming more popular. Point clouds have always been hamstrung by slow processing and an often manually intensive ‘registration’ procedure. The transformational capability of the technology has meant that point cloud surveys have still been used despite these deficiencies. However, their use has often been limited to the largest construction projects and specific circumstances where it delivers a massive return on investment through high commissioning costs.

Land Surveying FAQs

Why Do I Need a Land Survey?

A land survey establishes a property’s boundaries, preventing disputes with neighbours while providing necessary information for construction projects.

How Long Does a Land Survey Take?

The time necessary varies based on the size and complexity of the site. Typically, a simple survey can be completed within a few days, while larger, more complex projects may take longer.

What is the Difference Between a Boundary Survey and a Topographic Survey?

A boundary survey identifies property lines and corners, while a topographic survey maps the terrain’s features.

How Does a Land Survey Impact My Construction Project?
