G H Johnston Building Consultants Ltd is the Highlands leading architectural planning consultancy. Established over 30 yeas ago, the company provides a comprehensive service to landowners seeking to maximise the potential of their land or property. The planning team include highly experienced RTPI qualified former local authority planners who are able to guide clients smoothly through the new Government planning legislation, without unnecessary delays, by anticipating potential problems and pitfalls.
Advice is available on a wide range of issues, from policy planning, master planning, land use and development potential, to the lodging of planning applications and appearing on clients’ behalf at hearings and public inquiries. Amongst our clients are Inverbroom Estate, Cawdor Estates, Brahan Estates, Broadland Properties Ltd, County Properties Ltd and Home Farms Ltd. For one of our landowning clients, Cawdor Estates, we are currently leading the master planning of a major long-term development plan for the expansion of Cawdor village. This involves working closely with the community, assimilating the feasibility, urban design and environmental inputs, consulting with the Planning Authority and relevant statutory agencies, and designing a framework for guiding financial and market appraisals. This will be the foundation for a development plan submission and a major planning application.
As the company also comprises architects and supporting staff, projects can, if required, be taken forward from planning through the design and construction stages to completion. By offering this wide range of services, projects are handled from conception to completion by members of a team fully aware of the clients’ objectives and parameters.
In the face of Government reviews of planning policies and legislation, the company aims to remain at the forefront of the planning and architecture professions and assist the landowners to take forward developments in the current economic climate. If you wish to discuss a particular project please contact Alan Ogilvie, Colin Mackenzie or Gary Johnston.
