HM Revenue & Customs does not own the freehold interest in the Custom House site (also known as Priory Court) adjacent to Dover Priory railway station. HMRC occupies the site with the STEPS PFI agreement. While HMRC has been aware of approaches to the freeholder Mapeley for some time, formal discussions have commenced only recently in February 2014.
