Sworders Agricultural Commercial & Residential Ltd

We are an independent firm of surveyors, planners, and architects with a deep-rooted connection to the land. Most of our team comes from rural backgrounds, meaning we don’t just understand the technicalities of property—we understand the lifestyle, the challenges, and the long-term goals of the people who own it.

Through experience, dedication, and enthusiasm, we produce results that help our clients navigate the complexities of the modern property market while maintaining traditional values.

Whether you are looking to breathe new life into a listed building or diversify a farm’s income stream, our multidisciplinary team has the expertise to guide you. We combine architectural creativity with planning precision to deliver results across:

• Architecture & Design: From individual replacement dwellings to large-scale masterplanning.
• Planning & Heritage: Navigating the complexities of listed buildings, conservation areas, and change of use.
• Rural Management: Handling everything from contract farming and environmental schemes to sporting and wildlife management.

Beyond agency and planning, we provide specialist professional services including compulsory purchase and compensation, mineral leases, and dispute resolution. We pride ourselves on being approachable and results-driven, ensuring that every project—no matter how complex—is handled with the care it deserves. Whether you are a homeowner in Hertfordshire or a landowner in Somerset, we are here to help your property reach its full potential.
