I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You should assess 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3).

You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the conveyancing.
