But possession and control do not turn upon ownership, one man can be the owner and another can be in possession and a third can have control. I assume any potential bidders are aware of the above information as they should be. The way in which Mr Hunter went about assessing a suitable price for such a sale to the connected company was to take a valuation of the entirety of the charged property, to deduct from it the proceeds of sale on the sale of part of Kirkdene and to arrive at a resulting figure. What matters more are the events of the 14th July of this year.

On 26th August 2011 Mr Hunter applied in the Aylesbury Count Court for the following order -- I read from the application notice: "Application to permit me to complete a contract entered into in February 2011, varied on 14th July 2011, to sell Maple Barn, two barn conversions, farm buildings and 104 acres of farmland to K Hunter and Sons Limited for 1.55 million." That's correct? I will refer to the contract in relation to the bulk of the land. I have used the phrase not less than because Mr Hunter did not seem to quarrel with the suggestion I put to him that UK Farm Finance Limited would make various charges for fees and other matters in connection with the provision of finance. It is agreed that all of the land with which this case is concerned is subject to one or other of those two charges. The time has come for this state of affairs to be brought to an end by direct intervention by the bank assisted by the Court's order and so I will make the order which I am asked to make. 74. It would necessarily follow that if that order were to be made that Mr Hunter would be able to make title free from the charge to K Hunter and Sons Limited, so the intervention of the Court would free Mr Hunter from the legal difficulty he is otherwise under. Under the charge by way of legal mortgage the mortgagor was Mr Hunter and the bank was National Westminster Bank Plc.
