Sproull & Co

About

The original firm of Sproull Goddard & Co., Chartered Accountants, was founded in London in the 1920s by a Scotsman, Robert Sproull.

The firm commenced business in Great Queen Street, near Holborn and subsequently opened a branch in Harrow, which proved to be so successful that the London office was no longer required – the practice has been based entirely in Harrow ever since. In 1978, following a merger with Messrs. Davies Taylor & Co. the new combined firm changed its name to Sproull & Co. and relocated the operations of its four Harrow offices into the current premises at 31/33 College Road.

In addition to the acquisition of other practices, the practice has grown over the years principally by recommendation from existing clients as well as innovative marketing. The Directors in the firm have generally been recruited from within its own ranks – the present Directors represent the third and fourth generation since the original practice was formed.

The clients of the practice are representative of most trades and professions, and include a large number of personal taxation clients. A separate specialist taxation department has always been maintained throughout the firm’s history.

Geographically, the clients are situated mainly in the South of England ranging from Devon to Kent, the South Downs and Oxfordshire.

The firm currently employs 20 staff, including qualified accountants, ex-Revenue & Customs employees and trainee accountants, together with administrative and secretarial staff.
