My wife and I purchased a leasehold flat in Wennington. Conveyancing and mortgage organised. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1993. The conveyancing practitioner in Wennington who previously acted has now retired. What should I do?

You should note that in any event, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
