About Wansford & Skerne
Wansford and Skerne are the canal-side hamlets south-east of Driffield, strung along the Driffield Navigation and the chalk streams that made this corner of the Wolds famous for its trout. Properties are rural — farmhouses, cottages with paddocks, and homes whose boundaries include water, land or both.
Legal matters typical in Wansford & Skerne
Estates with land attached need more than a standard Will: field parcels, water rights, tenancies and shared accesses all have to pass cleanly, and Agricultural Property Relief has to be considered before death, not after. We draft for land-tied estates, advise on farm and smallholding succession, and handle Probate where the asset schedule is more than a house and a bank account.

Fixed-fee probate
When someone close to you dies, you should be grieving — not chasing solicitors. We handle Probate end-to-end at a fixed fee, with a single named contact and a clear timeline. No percentage-of-estate billing.
Learn moreLasting Powers of Attorney
Fixed-fee lpa
A Lasting Power of Attorney lets the people you trust act for you if you can't — through illness, injury, or age. Without one, your family has to apply to the Court of Protection. With one, they can act in days.
Learn moreTrusts & Asset Protection
Fixed-fee trusts
A Trust can protect family assets from care fees, reduce inheritance tax, and provide for a vulnerable family member. The right Trust depends on your situation — we explain plainly which structure fits and which doesn't.
