Supporting a Diverse Historic Estate
Miserden Estate is a historic privately owned estate in Gloucestershire, comprising an extensive and varied portfolio of residential, commercial, agricultural and community properties. The estate includes farms, barns, workshops, offices, holiday accommodation, residential properties, commercial premises, community buildings and specialist facilities, each presenting its own unique fire safety considerations.
We provide ongoing fire safety consultancy, working closely with the estate management team to deliver practical advice and Fire Risk Assessments across this exceptionally diverse property portfolio.
The Support We Provide
Our consultancy supports the estate in managing fire safety across a broad range of premises, helping ensure that each building receives advice appropriate to its size, construction, occupancy and use.
Our support includes:
- Fire Safety consultancy
- Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs)
- Review of existing fire safety arrangements
- Fire safety action plans
- Practical fire safety advice for estate management
- Advice on fire safety improvements and compliance
- Ongoing support for estate properties
- Fire safety guidance for commercial tenants
- Telephone and email support
Our work has included Fire Risk Assessments and fire safety advice for a wide variety of premises across the estate, including:
- Estate offices and administrative buildings
- Farms, agricultural buildings and barns
- Workshops and operational facilities
- Holiday accommodation, including self-catering apartments and larger holiday home
- Residential flats, houses and estate-owned accommodation
- Commercially let premises and their communal areas
- Community buildings, including the village hall
- A specialist biomass energy facility

- Gardens, greenhouses, sheds and other estate outbuildings
We have also supported the estate by developing a straightforward referral process for tenants who require Fire Risk Assessments, making it easier for estate management to recommend competent and consistent fire safety support where required.
Our Approach
No two properties across the estate are the same. From historic buildings and agricultural facilities to holiday accommodation, community buildings and specialist operational premises, each requires a fire risk assessment that reflects how the building is constructed, occupied and managed.
Our approach is to provide practical, proportionate and site-specific advice that supports both compliance and the day-to-day management of the estate. By developing a detailed understanding of the estate and working closely with the management team, we provide consistent fire safety advice while recognising the unique characteristics of every property.
The Outcome
Our ongoing relationship with Miserden Estate provides access to experienced fire safety consultancy across an exceptionally diverse range of buildings and occupancies.
By delivering tailored Fire Risk Assessments, clear recommendations and ongoing professional support, we help the estate manage fire safety consistently across its extensive property portfolio while recognising that every building presents different risks and operational requirements. This collaborative approach provides estate management with confidence that experienced fire safety advice is available whenever it is needed.
