My uncle passed away six months ago and as sole heir and executor I was left the house in Cinderford. The house had a relatively small loan left on it of around £8000. I want to transfer the title deeds into my name whilst I re-mortgage to Nottingham, pay off the mortgage. Is this possible?
If you plan to re-mortgage then Nottingham will insist on your using a conveyancer on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your Nottingham conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the Nottingham mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
This question may be naive but I am new to the house moving as FTB of a ground floor flat in Cinderford. Do I collect the keys to the premises on the completion date from my conveyancer? If so, I will appoint a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Cinderford?

I am expecting a DIP from Aldermore this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Aldermore recommend any Cinderford solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Cinderford solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.
My wife and I have a terraced Victorian house in Cinderford. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Yorkshire Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same 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 for 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 Cinderford and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also question the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the purchase.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Cinderford.
