Where a Swiss Cottage property is jointly owned and one of the owners passes away, the name will not immediately be removed from the title deeds. You are not required to amend the title as in the event of a sale your conveyancer would just be required to supply proof as to the reason the other proprietor is not a party to the conveyance, such as the probate documents.
With the aim of making things more straight forward in the future you may apply to have the deceased name removed from the title by applying to the land registry with proof of the death. There is no fee from the Registry for this service.
