Is my 94 grandaunt entitled to claim ownership of the original house and holding?
Not at all if she is not compos mentis. Other than that, this is is a mess and without very specific information about who did what, when and with what intention would it be at all obvious who was entitled to anything.
I suppose no-one ever wants to discuss it?

did the Grand Uncle establish squatters rights?

. Did he by any chance go off and get a Grant or register an interest in the lands?
mf
And how did the people who built houses finance those houses if the title was not resolved?
mf
Worth doing a Land Registry search to see if anyone has ever dealt with the lands - if it is Land Registry property.

I am trying to resolve a similar problem. A complete mess, no will, land never registered, and claimants coming out of the woodwork after 40 odd years. I'd advise getting a solicitor with expertise in this area, don't go to the first sol you see on the street, well worth getting a referral from someone.
