Mark Ferguson Ltd

Protecting the Interests of UK Landowners and Farmers

We understand that your land is your most valuable asset, but navigating the complexities of utility infrastructure and planning law can be a minefield. Since 2008, Mark Ferguson Ltd. has acted as a dedicated shield for rural property owners, ensuring that when utility companies or developers come knocking, our clients are never left out of pocket.

Led by Mark Ferguson (MRICS, BSc), who brings over 26 years of professional experience to the table, we combine deep technical knowledge with a straightforward, approachable style. We aren't just consultants; we are your partners in exploring the full potential value of your land.

Specialists in Utility Compensation and Pylon Claims

If a utility company requires access to your land or installs infrastructure like pylons, you are entitled to fair treatment and compensation. We specialise in holding these authorities to account.

Our Commitment: For specialised pylon and utility compensation claims, we operate on a "no settlement, no fee" basis. If we don't achieve a result for you, we make no charge whatsoever.

In most cases, the acquiring authority will even indemnify you against the reasonable legal fees required to record the transaction. This means you get expert representation and a professional settlement without the financial risk.

Why Rural Communities Trust Our Expertise

Based in Skeffington, we serve Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and the surrounding counties with a track record that is second to none. We have advised thousands of clients, ranging from individual farmers to housing associations, local authorities, and large commercial developers.

Beyond the Big Projects: Tenacious Support for Daily Challenges

We know that rural life comes with unique headaches. Have you suffered from a vehicle crashing through a boundary hedge or fence? Most landowners "take it on the chin" because they lack the time to pursue a claim.

We take that burden off your shoulders. We have the tenacity to pursue drivers' insurance companies to recover every penny—covering new hedging, debris removal, and your own time spent on temporary repairs.

Unlocking Development Potential

Whether you are looking for a rural estate appraisal or need to navigate the planning system for a new development opportunity, we provide the viable solutions you need. We take the time to discuss your specific circumstances, offering competitive fees on a transparent, time-recorded, or fixed-price basis. From selling stable barns to negotiating complex infrastructure easements, we ensure your property works for you.
