James Hutton

Background

James studied Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Cambridge and Estate Management at Oxford Brookes University. He began working at Hutton and Rostron in 1986, specialising in electronic publishing, primarily for the construction industry.

Prior to joining H+REI full time he undertook project-specific historic research and assisted with specialist surveys of buildings ranging from Hampton Court Palace to Brighton Pavilion.

Areas of Practice

James became a director of H+REI in 1999. He continues to work as a building surveyor and historic building consultant with an emphasis on the built environment of the Georgian period and ecclesiastical buildings. He liaises with Conservation Officers and Planning Departments all over the country but with a particular focus on London.

His experience is valuable to developers and property agents trying to achieve the best value on their projects, especially in the discharge of conditions issued by insurers such as Premier and NHBC.
