As Independent Surveyors we are frequently in the area of Primrose Hill, Camden, Islington, Westminster and Mayfair carrying out full structural surveys on residential and commercial properties. We particularly note the large and historic Regent's Park which is a must to visit in the area and during the London 2012 Olympics a Park where audiences could watch the games via large live TV screens.
The Regent's Park is a Royal Park located partly in the City of Westminster and partly in the London Borough of Camden near to places such as Camden Lock, Lords Cricket Ground, Primrose Hill, Baker Street and Marylebone. Regent's Park has St John's Wood and Lisson Grove to the west, Camden Town to the north, Euston/St Pancreas to the east and Regent St, Oxford St and Mayfair to the south.
If you are purchasing a property in the Regent's Park area, please ensure that you have a building survey carried out on it. A building survey, prepared by an Independent Chartered Building Surveyor could literally save you thousands of pounds. The survey only needs to uncover one potential problem with the property and the cost of the building survey is more than recovered.

This means we are working towards your best interests. We want to ensure that your property investment is sound and that you are receiving value for money.

It is quite often referred to as the greatest of the London parks, and like all the other Royal Parks is owned by the Crown. Back in the days prior to the reign of Henry VIII, the land was owned by the clergy. Henry appropriated the land during the time of the dissolution of the mo nasteries, and from then till now (with the exception of Oliver Cromwell's rule) the park has remained crown property. Originally known as Marylebone Park , it was John Nash who, in 1811, designed the park in the style we see it today. The brief given to Nash was to design and create a park in the style of a country estate.
