My IFA has requested my Winscombe lawyer’ panel reference for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I find this out. I have e-mailed my local Winscombe branch but they have not responded to me.

I am the registered owner of a freehold property in Winscombe but still invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Winscombe and has limited impact for conveyancing in Winscombe but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges post 1977.
Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be extinguished.
I note that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Do I require chancel insurance when purchasing a property in Winscombe? or Apparently there is a law dating back centuries that could mean that house owners living in a parish church boundary may be liable to pay for maintenance towards the chancel in proximity to the church. Is this suitable for conveyancing in Winscombe?
Unless a prior acquisition of the property completed after 12 October 2013 you can expect conveyancing practitioners handling conveyancing in Winscombe to continue to advocate a chancel search and or chancel repair liability insurance.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Winscombe is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Winscombe are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Winscombe you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Winscombe may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
