Having lived in Thurrock for many years we know that this is a non issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Thurrock is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Thurrock are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Thurrock you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Thurrock may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
My husband and I are 3 weeks into a leasehold purchase having been directed to a firm by the local agent to perform conveyancing in Thurrock. We are not happy. Could you help me find new conveyancers?
