Interpretation: working hypotheses

Working hypotheses, kept apart from the record above. The record text on this page is unchanged. None of these is a finding: each line is labelled as inference, theory, a reading that cuts against the case, or a discarded theory, and names the evidence it rests on and what would confirm or refute it, so the reader can test it. Updated 25 Oct 2026 (v2: ingredients wording).

Why 1983

INFERENCE · W-03The farmhouse title was applied for on 23 Feb 1983, while she was alive and in occupation, and examined after her death (26 Mar 1983 in family records; "March 1983" in the judgment). HM Land Registry's 30 Jul 2026 schedule lists a D23 "inside exam" form with a Linklaters letter of 8 Apr 1983, correspondence of 12 Apr 1983, and Linklaters/Registry letters of 12 May 1983. The register edition carries the application date, 23 Feb 1983 (record). Working hypothesis: whatever the Registry asked about occupation was answered after the occupier had died, while the finished title speaks from a date when she was alive. The content of the three letters is not yet read.

Would be confirmed by: The 8 Apr, 12 Apr and 12 May 1983 letters (HM Land Registry subject access request, due 28 Oct 2026). If they described the house as vacant, or omitted her son in occupation, this reading is strengthened.

Would be refuted by: The same letters disclosing the occupation and BP's unresolved 1974 action to the Registry.

Status: Open; decisive input due 28 Oct 2026

The 1974 licence letters

THEORY · L-01Ground R1: the Court of Appeal answered the "wrong company" argument only from the letters' own words that BP Properties Ltd "had agreed to buy". Completion came on 23 May 1975, and HM Land Registry's schedule lists a plan to the sale dated 23 Feb 1975, almost four months after the letters. Working hypothesis: if no binding agreement existed on 31 Oct 1974, BP Properties had nothing to licence.

Rests on: EV-0050 · EV-0052 · EV-0080 · EV-0161 (this page) · ground R1

Would be confirmed by: BP Archive or Registry papers showing no agreement before Feb–May 1975.

Would be refuted by: A dated contract or board minute before 31 Oct 1974. Cuts against: an unwritten agreement is not void (E28); a press snippet suggests the two companies shared an officer in 1972, so a group decision recorded only internally is plausible (E124, not yet confirmed); the 23 Feb 1975 date may be a clerical carry-over in the Registry's letter (E81).

Status: Open (ground R1, scores a1 b3 c2 d1)
