Owen Devenport was set up 15 years ago, identifying a gap in the market for experienced planning advice. Berwyn Owen, the Managing Director, having a background at Chief Officer level in local government, can claim that no other multi-office planning consultancy operating in the area offers this level of knowledge. There is no other company that can claim to be Chartered Town Planners AND Chartered Surveyors in the Planning and Development field with a background in local government as well as the private sector, and having some 40 years experience in Town Planning.
