History
The Practice was founded in 1975 by John Fifield as a Manchester-based practice of Chartered Surveyors and Commercial Property Consultants, providing a comprehensive personal service for the acquisition, disposal, development, investment, management and valuation of retail and business space throughout England and Wales, with particular emphasis on North West England and North Wales.
Between 1975 and 1991 the firm operated from central Manchester, but then moved to Gadbrook Park - a 160 acre/64.75ha Business Park about 5 minutes west on A556 from Junction 19 M6, 20 minutes from Manchester Airport and Crewe Station. The location allows for easy access and parking for both clients and staff.
The London office was opened in 1980 by Christopher Glyn (now the late Lord Wolverton) and Roderic Welfare and is now located at 58 Grosvenor Street, Mayfair.
