Proof of ownership

We have just been given notice by our landlord to move out. Now in the process of completing references for a new rental and they have asked for proof of ownership of the property we lived in prior to this one ( I'm guessing as we have only been here 1 year).
How can I prove we owned it? They suggested title deeds but I don't know how to start. Would the solicitor who did the sale help or the land registry?

Don't you have any paperwork/emails from your sale?0

If you really have no paperwork for your sale, do you have any emails you could print out ? If not, then yes the Land Registry (make sure you use the proper one, not a scam site that will charge you much higher prices) https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry will hopeully be able to help.0

No, I went a bit enthusiastic with the shredding! Do you think a letter from the solicitor would do it? Not that that would confirm how long we lived there.... Although we did use them for the purchase as well.0

OK thanks will try the land registry.0

Sorted. I phoned the solicitors and they had a copy of the title deeds and emailed it to me. Thanks.0
