Request
I would like details and transaction costs relating to the transfer of Quennevais park flats, Block G & H to private flying freehold. Specifically how much the residents paid to purchase the freehold for their parking spaces.
I believe the transactions tool place around 2002.
Attached is a map with Blocks G & H highlighted which will hopefully help clarify my request.
