There is unlikely to be post completion requirements unique to conveyancing in Blandford Forum.
Me and my brother have a renovated Georgian house in Blandford Forum. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Birmingham Midshires. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
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 Blandford Forum and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, but the property agent told us that the seller will only move forward if we instruct the agent's chosen conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in Blandford Forum
It is improbable the sellers are behind this. If they want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the owners direct and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to use your preferred Blandford Forum conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will earn their estate agent a commission or meet his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by HQ.
Me and my husband are selling a Blandford Forum ground floor flat left to us ten years ago in 2011. I have over a decades worth of conveyancing know-how and, although retired, see no reason not to undertake my own conveyancing. The buyer's conveyancer has informed me that their mortgage company will not allow you to do your own conveyancing requiring the funds to be transferred to a solicitor's bank account.
Lending instructions to conveyancers from all UK Finance members specify that If the vendor is not legally represented the purchaser’s lawyers should check whether the mortgage company needs to be notified so that a decision can be reached as to whether or not they are prepared to proceed.
