Active - Proposal to Strike off

The annual accounts for this company are overdue.

Executive summary

Appleby Castle Limited is an insolvent property-holding vehicle within a group structure, carrying -£5.35M net liabilities with its heritage property assets fully encumbered as security for another group entity's debt. The immediate existential threat is the active strike-off proposal, which must be contested urgently to prevent asset loss and liability crystallisation. Without a comprehensive group restructuring—converting inter-company debt to equity, renegotiating security arrangements, and recapitalising the balance sheet—this entity will continue its decade-long trajectory of value erosion until either director support withdraws or a creditor enforces, triggering formal insolvency.
