I have over 40 years experience as a surveyor with Ordnance Survey,
resurveying and revising large scale maps and associated data at 1:1250, 1:2500 and 1:10,000 scales, including surveys for
Her Majesty’s Land Registry.
My experience includes
the interpretation and use of aerial photography for survey purposes.
I retired from Ordnance Survey
holding the post of Chief Surveyor and Production Group Manager for Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Rutland. I have been
seconded to the government of the Republic of Indonesia as an adviser on Survey Standards and Validation, and as a trainer
of Balinese government surveyors in the revision of large scale mapping by ground graphic survey methods. I was
the lead member of a team of eight Expert Witnesses trained by Bond Solon to represent Ordnance Survey in the civil courts
in litigation over property boundaries, Rights of Way disputes and map interpretation. This work involved
investigations and research, the writing of reports and verbal evidence in the witness box. I have
also advised the police and HM Customs on behalf of Ordnance Survey in criminal cases.
I am fully conversant with the requirements of the Civil Procedure Rules Part 35 (Experts and Assessors)
and the associated Practice Directions and Codes of Practice. I am a vetted member listed in the UK Register of Expert Witnesses.
Ordnance Survey has now withdrawn from corporate involvement in this field
of work and I am consequently available to undertake Expert Witness and consultancy
work as an individual. If my experience and expertise can be of use to you in an advisory capacity, or in preparation
for civil or criminal litigation I am available for a free 10 minute discussion without any obligation.
