Title deeds query

Anybody can give an opinion or an answer to a question. However when you listen to the answer you need to take into account who is actually giving the opinion or the answer.
 
Why thank her for the reply when she never knew the answer unlike the next responder who was much more helpful 👍

I will find out myself thanks.

The old saying applies...if you want anything doing , do it yourself 😁
To be honest I would have done that anyway and not bothered posting it on here that’s for certain!
 
From what I can see in the pages of the deed the leasehold and freehold were sold together and on registration you would have a freehold title. However if I were doing the registration today I would want to see all the documents before proceeding with a title. Each title is assessed on its own merits and processed accordingly. Things may have changed since I retired 12 years ago, but I did land registration as my profession for over 25years and much will be the same now. I would still get some advice even so just to be 100%, but do get a competent solicitor. Good luck.😉
 
Yes this page confirms that your father had the freehold and that the freehold and leasehold titles were intended to merge thus effectively extinguishing the leasehold - you should still check the individual titles just to ensure that the freehold includes all the rights granted by the lease .
In reply to Finnbear's post number 21 I would point out that one of the reasons for the "historical terminology" is that some of the words have very precise meanings which actually save having to describe the object in question in many more words. The days of paying solicitors by the" folio" however were long gone even in the 60s
