Almost all properties in Brough should be revealed. Have you limited your search to simply the postcode. Normally it should disclose all the residences within the postcode. Where recorded it will be there with a title number. If they bought back in the 60’s it's conceivable it may be not yet registered. The property might still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to track down the original title deeds which could be with your parent’s bank.
