Spotlight on our Leyburn Office

Our Leyburn office is set on the bustling high street of this thriving market town, which is just outside the Yorkshire Dales National Park in Lower Wensleydale. We cover an extensive area including the popular dales of Wensleydale, Arkengarthdale and Swaledale; past the unspoilt wilds of Bishopdale and Coverdale; to the picturesque countryside of Wharfedale.

We have a friendly and pro-active local team who can provide you with a full range of professional and property services and whether you are thinking of buying, selling or renting a property, we can offer a dynamic and professional approach to provide you with quality, innovative advice!

Lucy Mawer, our Branch Manager at the Leyburn office, is not quite Wensleydale born and bred, but near enough! Lucy has previously worked for the Yorkshire Dales National Park before starting with GSC Grays, just a few months after the Leyburn Office opened back in 2010, as an Assistant Negotiator. Lucy’s knowledge of the local area, the communities and it’s people is essential in her role and in delivering tailored advice and guidance to our clients.

Laura Calvert, who works with Lucy as our Sales Negotiator has lived on a farm in Swaledale all her life. Laura has a local knowledge of the area and is familiar with the villages and people of Swaledale and Wensleydale. Since joining GSC Grays, Laura has completed a part time degree in business management at Teesside University, graduating in November 2013 with First Class Honours.

Alongside the property team, Phil Scott-Priestley, and John Wallis undertake all aspects of Estate & Sporting Management work together with rural professional work including Basic Payment Scheme and Stewardship advice, land and farm sales, landlord and tenant advice, compulsory purchase & compensation and valuations.

Having grown up on a family farm near Catterick Village, Phil who is a Director of GSC Grays, pursued a career as a land agent, qualifying with a rural and sporting firm of land agents in Oxfordshire and subsequently working for a land owner with holdings in Buckinghamshire, Wales and Scotland. Phil returned to North Yorkshire in 2008 and heads up the Leyburn Office.

John, who works alongside Phil as an Assistant Land Agent, also grew up on a local farm in Swaledale and has always had a passion for agricultural and the rural community. After leaving Richmond 6th Form College John studied Mathematics and Business Management at Northumbria University. After graduating he worked as an agricultural engineer for just over a year for a local firm. He joined GSC Grays in July 2013 to further his passion for Estate Management and in particular the enhancement and running of rural sporting Estates.

Phil and John are ably supported by our newest team member, Shelley Jones, who joined us in Spring 2014 as office administrator, having relocated from the south, where she worked as a legal secretary. This legal (conveyancing) background is a further asset to the Leyburn team.
