It is is a decade since I bought my property in Chirk. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been retained on the sale but I am unable to track down the title documents. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. First the deeds may be kept by your lender or they may still be with the lawyers who oversaw your purchase. Secondly in all probability the land will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Chirk relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
