Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

The company is a private company limited by share capital, incorporated in England and Wales.

The address of its registered office is:
56 High Street
Lymington
Hampshire
SO41 9AH

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PREPARATION
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

The company's functional and presentation currency is pound sterling and the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.

KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
The company recognises revenue and work in progress based on estimating the outcome of contracts it enters into as described in the revenue recognition accounting policy. This results in estimation uncertainty as the outcomes of such contracts are not guaranteed and are subject to changes in circumstances which are outside the control of the directors. The directors obtain as much relevant and reliable information as is available to them in order to determine the outcome of such contracts, but acknowledge that actual outcomes may materially impact the profit recognised on completion.

EXEMPTION FROM PREPARING GROUP ACCOUNTS
The company is part of a small group. The company has taken advantage of the exemption provided by Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not prepared group accounts. Therefore, the financial statements cover the individual entity.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

GOING CONCERN
The directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully, despite the current uncertain economic outlook, and have reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

TANGIBLE ASSETS
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

DEPRECIATION
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate
Fixtures and fittings25% straight line basis
Short leasehold improvementsStraight line over 6.5 year lease

INVESTMENT PROPERTY
Investment property is carried at fair value, derived from the current market prices for comparable real estate determined annually by external valuers. The valuers use observable market prices, adjusted if necessary for an difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.

INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

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

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is 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.

DEFERRED TAX
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Profit and loss account transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the closing rates at the balance sheet date and the exchange differences are included in the profit and loss account.

HIRE PURCHASE AND LEASES
Rentals payable under operating lease are charged in the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the lease term.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

PENSIONS
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged in the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.

BORROWINGS
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Profit and Loss Account over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS RECEIVABLE
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method and dividend income is recognised as the company's right to receive payment is established.

The average number of employees during the year was 11 (2020 - 11 ) .
