Former Owner(Crichel Down) Considerations

Sea Mounting Centre, Cracknore Hard, Marchwood, Southampton, SO40 4UT

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, unless an exemption applies.

In this instance the land is not to be offered back because an exemption or exemptions apply. MOD would like to trace the former owner or successors in title to the former owner (as defined in the Crichel Down Rules) to notify them of the decision.

The Former Owner(s) are:

a) Test Lands Limited

b) James Dredging, Towage, & Transport Company Limited

c) Verna Augusta Rose

The former owners or their successor(s) in title (other than through purchase) should contact MOD in writing within two months of the date of this notice to:

Freya Simpson, Senior Surveyor, Estates Defence Infrastructure Organisation, 1/150 Murrays Lane, HM Naval Base, Portsmouth, PO1 3NH

Email address: freya.simpson109@mod.gov.uk

Please note - successors in title should state and provide evidence of their succession from the former owner
