My wife and I purchased a terraced Georgian house in Barnard Castle. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Virgin Money. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3).

You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.
