It is possible to execute a search at the Land Registry, find your property and order current copies of the Registered Entries for less than a fiver. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally hold a certified copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for £20 inclusive of VAT.
