C P WALKER & SON WAS FOUNDED IN 1896 AND IS THE AREA'S LONGEST ESTABLISHED ESTATE AGENT AND CHARTERED SURVEYOR, PROVIDING UNPARALLELED EXPERTISE AND LOCAL KNOWLEDGE.

The Company was founded back in 1896 by Charles Potter Walker, principally to manage properties that had recently been constructed by members of his family. The Company diversified into insurance soon afterwards, originally collecting premiums from shopkeepers along Beeston High Road and from the traders at Nottingham's Wholesale Fruit and Vegetable Market.

The designation "& Son" was added to the company name in 1926 when Philip Arthur Walker was made a partner by his father. Philip Walker took over the helm in 1931 and in particular expanded the company's Insurance department, becoming an underwriting member of Lloyd's in 1954. In 1956, Charles Philip Walker became the third generation of the Walker family to join the business. Charles Walker was the Managing Partner between 1968 and 2020,responsible for the running of the firm's Property Department and remains present within the business.

The family tradition continues into its fourth generation, with Dan Walker being appointed as a partner in January 2004 to enhance and further develop the specialist commercial property division and brother Rex Walker joining the partnership as Managing Partner in 2020.

Jonathan Taylor was appointed to this dynamic partnership in January 2008, in recognition of his development of the Residential Lettings Department which he continues to oversee and manage.  In April 2024 Justin Hevness joined the partnership having successfully delivered growth of our insurance broking and wholesaling departments.
