Considers the case of "Beechwood Development Company (Scotland) Ltd v Stuart Mitchell t/a Discovery Land Surveys" in which Beechwood, a housebuilder, was awarded £31,000 damages for losses incurred from a delayed start to a building contract. Argues that an adjudicator may have come to a different conclusion on the basis that Beechwood was only temporarily out of pocket, and the lost time could have been made up in the longer term.
