History
It was acquired by Mr. J. Harriot and Mr. Alex Melvin joined the Partnership, subsequently becoming Sole Principal.
The practise was subsequently acquired by Mr. B. Dinnage and Mr. D. Dunlop in December 1966 with Mr. Dinnage becoming the Sole principal in 1969.
From 1975, M & C traded at 43, High Street, Teddington and 38, Church Street, Twickenham, the practise expanded to at one time 9 offices including 43, London Road, 43/57A London Road, Twickenham, 25, Hampton Road, Hampton, Hampton Wick, 35 High Street, Teddington, Isleworth, East Sheen and Whitton. The disposal of the offices dictated by the market, and which were surplus to requirements occurred over several years prior to 2003.
In January 1975, Mr. Dinnage acquired the Practise of Goaly & Goatly Est approx., 1870 trading from 38, Church Street.
Mr. R. Gerrard joined as Sales Manager in January 1975 and became a Partner in 1985 with Mr. Dinnage becoming sole principal in 1997.
Antony Robson FRICS acquired the Practise on 1st April 2003 and as a result, it became a firm of Chartered Surveyors with Mr. Dinnage remaining as Professional Consultant until 30th April 2021.
In August 2017, Mr. Robson acquired Milestone Twickenham Residential Sales Office with operations trading from 86, Heath Road Twickenham.
Since 1890 there have therefore only been 3 owners of the Practise.

- Above all, we are particularly aware of taking into full consideration all technical and macro and micro property related, economic and demand and supply factors when offering our advice.
- While it is not our position to take our client's decisions, we endeavour to advise our clients on the basis of the decision that we would take in their situation, based upon the advice that we have given and all the pertinent factors relating to the financial and aspirational goals detailed in our brief.
