Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Turnover
Turnover represents the amounts receivable from the rental of investment properties, excluding value added tax, during the year.

Turnover is recognised as the right to consideration arises and adjustments are made for accrued and deferred income.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended by management.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful
life.

Fixtures, fittings and equipment - 33.33% on cost

Investment property
Investment properties are measured at fair value at each reporting date, with gains or losses recognised in the profit and loss account. Properties are valued annually using the open market valuation basis. Material deferred tax is provided on these gains at the rate expected to apply when the property is sold.

Financial instruments
The company enters into basic financial instruments, which result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities. Financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost, except for investments in shares which are measured at fair value. At the end of each reporting period financial instruments are assessed for evidence of impairment, and changes are recognised in profit or loss.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current tax represents the amount of tax payable or receivable in respect of the taxable profit (or loss) for the current or past reporting periods.

Deferred tax represents the future tax consequences of material transactions and events recognised in the financial statements of current and previous periods.

Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted and are recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Foreign currencies
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling and recorded at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Balanced at the year-end denominated in a foreign currency are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
