Abstract
The District Surveyors Association was founded in 1845 as a natural progression consequent upon the birth of building control in Inner London, which had followed the Great Fire of London. In those early years, District Surveyors were mainly architects. There were over a hundred, each having responsibility for a small area of London. As buildings became larger, more complex and constructed with a higher degree of precision, the work of District Surveyors gradually shifted towards structural engineering.
