Round Wood Newick Lane, Mayfield, East Sussex, TN20 6RG
The most recent insolvency notice for Round Wood of Mayfield Limited is a Dismissal of winding up petition, published 23 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by HM Revenue & Customs on 28 July 2026. The case is before the Royal Courts Of Justice (case CR-2026-005907). The petition was listed to be heard on 21 October 2026 — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 December 2025, showed total assets of £3.5m and net assets of £1.2m. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.
HMRC is the petitioning creditor, so the debt behind the petition is unpaid tax — most often VAT, PAYE or corporation tax — rather than a trade debt. HMRC petitions usually follow a long run of missed payments and ignored demands.
