Land at the above location has been declared surplus to Ministry of Defence (MOD) requirements and is to be sold. The Crichel Down Rules require Government Departments, under certain circumstances, to offer back surplus land to the former owner or their successors in title at current market value.

In this instance the land is to be offered back. MOD therefore wishes to trace anyone who may fall within the definition of former owner or successor(s) in title contained in the Crichel Down Rules

Former Owners:

Mr Peter Taylor Martin and Mrs Elizabeth Jane Martin, Bradley Gate, Bulkington, Warwick

Mr Harry Astill, Bradley Farm, Wolvey, Warwick

The former owners or their successor(s) in title are invited to contact MOD by writing within two months of the date of this notice to:

Rob. Alexander, Defence Infrastructure Organisation, Building 18, Piave Lines, Leyburn Road Catterick Garrison, North Yorkshire, DL9 3LR

Email Rob.Alexander107@mod.gov.uk

Mob +44 07870377655

Successors in title should state and provide evidence of their relationship to the former owner and evidence to show that, had the land not been acquired by the MOD, it would have devolved under the former owner’s will or intestacy to the successor in title.
