A formal lease was subsequently completed in 1997, over ten years later, granting a long-term lease at a nominal (peppercorn) rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lease is between Mulbarton Parish Council, as freehold title holder, and the Scout Association (acting in a trustee capacity for the local Scout charity) as tenant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The arrangement provides the Scout charity with security of tenure for its building, which is typical where an organisation has invested its own funds in constructing premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A further lease was completed in 2014, replacing the earlier agreement. This was formalised by a deed of surrender of the 1997 lease and the grant of a new lease on updated terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The leasehold interest has been registered at the Land Registry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Observations from the Record<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The documentation relating to the site shows that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the Scout headquarters has been treated as a separately occupied part of the wider site<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>occupation has been on the basis of a long-term lease at nominal rent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>payments under the lease have been limited to nominal sums over the life of the arrangement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further details of the lease terms are not reproduced here.
