Metres above ordnance datum.

Thanks Mr Punter, so that means from the lowest point on that image +52.470 to the eaves measurement up at  +55.879 is 3.409 metres would this be about right? Thanks!

Yep.  It is sometimes a pain to do the calculation but your survey may also reference some existing points, like chamber covers in the road, which can help you when setting out to make sure your floor levels etc correspond to your plans.
