Inheritance

Hi everyone & hope you’re doing ok today.
I was BR in 2013 and discharged in 2014. All entries on my credit file in relation to my BR were removed after 6 years.
I’m about to inherit money from the sale of my mum’s house (she passed away in 2021). Am I right in thinking that this inheritance won’t be clawed back into my BR estate? And I don’t need to inform the OR?
I’ve got myself all worked up and confused about this. Can someone help please?
Thank you for all your help and support (now and back in 2013).

    No need to advise the OR, well out of time.
