1. Company information

The Company is a private company limited by shares and is incorporated in the United Kingdom and registered in England and Wales (Company no. 00929031). The address of its registered office is Goodwood House, Blackbrook Park Avenue, Taunton, TA1 2PX, United Kingdom.

2. Prior year adjustment

Following the restructure in June 2021, whereby the farming and property trade were transferred to the fully owned subsidiary, Herringston Farms Limited, the Grainstore management income was received by Herringston Farms Limited. However, as the Grainstore management trade was not transferred as part of the restructure, the income should have continued to be received by Herringston Estates Company Limited. The accounts have therefore been restated to reflect the corrected position, as follows:
- An amount of £36,377 plus VAT in the 2022 Year has been transferred to Herringston Estates Company Ltd from Herringston Farms Limited.
- An amount of £31,182 plus VAT in the 2023 Year has been transferred to Herringston Estates Company Ltd from Herringston Farms Limited.
