A high street Frenchay Common conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a factory type conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Frenchay Common. We have lived in Frenchay Common for many years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
