4 Buckland Gardens, Calmore, Southampton, Hampshire, SO40 2SB, Southampton
With over 40 years of mapping expertise and 35 years at the Ordnance Survey, we offer authoritative RICS expert witness services. We specialise in resolving complex boundary and rights of way disputes for domestic and commercial clients across Hampshire and Wiltshire.
Decades of Precision in Boundary and Land Law
Boundary disputes can quickly become heated and complex. Whether you are a homeowner dealing with a fence line disagreement or a commercial developer navigating access rights, you need more than just an opinion—you need authoritative, evidence-based expertise.
At Calvert Consulting, we provide that clarity. Established in 2001, we specialise in mapping matters, boundary demarcation, and rights of way issues. We don't just look at where a fence stands today; we look at the history, the deeds, and the data to provide a definitive picture of land ownership.
Why 35 Years at the Ordnance Survey Matters
Our expertise is rooted in a level of technical knowledge that is rare in the private sector. Our principal spent 35 years working with the Ordnance Survey, the national mapping agency of Great Britain. This background gives us an unparalleled understanding of how Land Registry plans are created, how they relate to the ground, and where discrepancies often arise.
When you hire us, you are benefiting from over 40 years of experience in mapping matters. We understand the nuances of archival maps and the technical requirements of the Land Registry better than most, ensuring your case is built on a foundation of absolute accuracy.
Expert Witness Support for High and County Courts
Since 1991, we have acted as RICS expert witnesses in both copyright and land law. We are frequently called upon to provide Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) compliant reports for use in litigation.

We typically deal with:
- Boundary Disputes: Resolving disagreements over fences, walls, and land edges.
