Take advice from an accountant or tax adviser before any Deed of Gift. There can be pitfalls re Inheritance Tax and s.339 of the Insolvency Act 1986.

Coppen Estates. . . .Sheffield
Jeffrey Shaw replied to feline01's topic in Sheffield Property & Housing
1. The Leasehold Reform Act 1967 gives the tenant (leaseholder) of a house the right- after two years' ownership- either: a. to buy the freehold reversion; or b. to extend the lease by 50yrs. 2. So your predecessor's lease extension, adding only 25yrs., was not a statutory extension at all. 3. So nor does s.16(1)(b) of the Act, which prohibits a second statutory lease extension. -
How Do I Find Out Who Sold My House?
Jeffrey Shaw replied to vipguy's topic in Sheffield Property & Housing
Best way: go direct to HMLR. They will have these details (except Estate Agents'). Start at https://www.gov.uk/search-property-information-land-registry (Beware: there are copycat websites that look like the real thing!) -
Er, no. 'The power' conferred by law comes from the Local Government Acts- hence from Parliament and the Crown.

Almost all of 'em, in my experience!

BBC Radio 4Extra last night featured a really enjoyable archive (1994) documentary. Well worth a listen on BBC Sounds, via https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001w803

I find the SYCMA (ne SYPTE) website very poor. It was fairly useless last week, in covering the snow chaos, too.

'Only Disabled Actors Should Play Disabled Roles'
Jeffrey Shaw replied to Chekhov's topic in General Discussions
Who should play dead people, please? And how'll you get corpses to sign their acting contracts? -
Merely planning the supposed A57 Link relief roads around Glossop has already taken decades and nothing's been built. See https://nationalhighways.co.uk/our-roads/north-west/a57-link-roads/

It's not really up there with Atlantis, I agree, nor is/was it a city at al- but it was included in an online BBC 'News' item today!

It's proposed to merge the County Mayor with the Police and Crime Commissioner. At least this might reduce admin costs, although I'm unconvinced that either post is needed at all. (I'd prefer the Mayor or combined post to be a REEVE, too. There is at least a historical basis- 'shire reeve' became 'sheriff', you see).

Oo, er...

Why Is Sheffield So Rubbih At Football?
Jeffrey Shaw replied to FIRETHORN1's topic in Sheffield Football
Is it not more about the financial chasm between the Premier League's teams and all the others?
