RH & RW Clutton

RH & RW Clutton[1] is an independent firm of chartered surveyors in south-east England that can be traced back to as early at 1744. It is based in East Grinstead and has offices in Petworth[2] and Guildford.

History

[edit | edit source]

RH & RW Clutton was originally founded back in 1765, when William Clutton took over his father-in-law's surveying business in Sussex and began trading under his own name.[3] He had a son, also named William, who had five sons - Robert, Ralph, John, Henry and William.

One of those grandsons, John Clutton, moved to London in 1837 to found the London business which today trades as Cluttons.[citation needed] John's brothers remained in Sussex to concentrate on the land agency business, which continues today as RH & RW Clutton.[4]

Today

[edit | edit source]

The company has been managing rural estates since 1743[5][6] and is one of the oldest property firms in the world and the oldest land management firm in the United Kingdom.[6][7] It retains some of its original clients, and has acted for some families over many generations.[citation needed] The firm is regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.[8]
