About ASH Design and Assessment

Get in touch

ASH was established as a partnership in 1979 to provide environmental design and assessment services.

Since its inception, the company has provided environmental consultancy support across a wide range of sectors, addressing various environmental challenges for public and private sector clients.

ASH has worked throughout Scotland and the UK for developers, design and build contractors and local government agencies. The company's expertise was founded on regeneration initiatives, transport-related assessment and design, and urban/rural landscape planning. Over the last two decades, our work has become increasingly focused on the transition to Net Zero with renewables, energy storage and electrical transmission becoming core areas of our work.
