I'm trying to reproject layers that were built in CAD. The first 6 figures of the coordinates match up to british national grid 6 figure grid ref. BUT there are 9 figures in the grid reference almost like it used BNG in millimetres instead of metres. I'm sure it is a simple quick convert/reproject but I'm a bit stumped...?

I'm not familiar with grid references, but if you think it's a case of different units a Scaler can do the trick.
