Almost all premises in Theale should be revealed. Have you limited your search to simply the postcode. Ordinarily it should mention all the premises inside that postcode. Assuming the property is registered it will show up with a title number. Where they bought back in the 70’s it's conceivable it may be unregistered. The address might still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title papers which may be with your parent’s bank.
