Hello - I downloaded the title register from the land registry site and to my surprise it has incorrect details, it has my old address against my name.
For example, the title register is for 100 Apple Road but it lists me under my old address from 10 years ago (22 Pear Road). Any idea how i can get this sorted. Do I need to speak to the solicitor who we used when we purchased my current house.
Thanks

It doesn't need sorted (though I think you can if you really want to for some reason) . It's your address at the time you bought the property ie before you moved in. Perfectly normal.0

You should ensure the address is where you currently live - whether that is the property in question, or elsewhere (eg if you rent the property out).
It is basic fraud prevention. If someone attempted to use your property (eg sell it fraudulently, take out a loan using your property address) you would not know as the Land Reg would write o you at the address they hold.

Also worth using their free alerts if any changes are proposed to the register:
