You will need to appoint Yoxall solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nottingham through the process.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Yoxall I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Yoxall for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
