Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in April. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in April. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?

By the strict wording you may be affected by that. many banks would take a sensible view as this clause chiefly exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.
