Sunderland Point on a fine day, measuring a plot for small development works and to prepare an accurate Land Registry title plan.

Land Surveying, North of Nelson
Land surveying, a green field in Kelbrook for a proposed housing development. Local resistance is already mounting.
Structural Monitoring, Millom
Fixing monitoring prisms to a church gable for a long term study in Millom. I’ll first measure the prisms several times to establish the baseline position. Periodically I’ll return to the site and remeasure, reporting the deviation results to the structural engineers.
Land Survey, Stapleton, near Carlisle
Land surveying with timid but inquisitive helpers. Mapping a farm complex for the redevelopment of dilapidated agricultural buildings.
Land Surveying, Sedbergh Road, Killington
Land survey, including the highway for road improvement works. Lambrigg Wind Farm in the distance.
Surveying a Property at Ravenstonedale
Just to add to my wildlife montage, a Red Squirrel. Topographical and measured building survey of a property for renovation and extension works.
Bridge Survey in Birkdale, Richmondshire
Not exactly the Forth Bridge, but it still needs measuring up for repair work. That’s when you have managed to find the site.
Bridge Survey in Brigham, Cockermouth
I am not sure if I’d chance driving over this old stone arch built to access a disused quarry in Broughton. Topographical survey plus 3D scanning to draw elevations and sections for repair work planning.
Land Survey in Duddon Valley
Measuring a control point, Dunnerdale-with-Seathwaite. Land survey required to design a flood drainage scheme around a cottage in the dip. Whitfell and Hesk Fell on the other side of the valley. You could say it’s a day’s hiking rather than work.
Deformation Study in Lancaster
I have been measuring this ceiling for several years. First, we 3D scanned the soffit to produce an elevation ramp Periodically, I measure fixed targets with an optical level and a digital level, which achieves only slightly better accuracy, but increases efficiency and reduces the chances of booking errors significantly.
