Freehold land and buildings The gross book value of freehold land and buildings includes £1,663,000 (2024: £1,663,000) of depreciable assets. James M. Brown Limited is itself a subsidiary company and is exempt from the requirement to prepare group accounts by virtue of section 400 of the Companies Act 2006. These financial statements therefore present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group. At the reporting date, the directors have considered whether there are any indicators of impairment in respect of the Group’s investments. No such indicators were identified and no impairment has been recognised.
