Am I compelled to take this when purchasing a residence in Sipson? or I am told that there is a law dating back centuries that means some owners of property residing in a parish church boundary will be compelled to pay for repairs to the chancel in proximity to the church. Is this appropriate for conveyancing in Sipson?
Unless a previous acquisition of the house completed after 12 October 2013 you can expect solicitors handling conveyancing in Sipson to remain recommending a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
I purchased a renovated Victorian house in Sipson. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Halifax. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You need to read 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 owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Sipson and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.
