I purchased a leasehold of an unregistered property that has now expired. At the same time I acquired the freehold of the neigbouring property. The leasehold also included the freehold property I purchased does this mean I am the freeholder of both?

Mudavanhu - I doubt it but I don't quite follow the thinking/reasoning as explained
A lease can't include a freehold property as you put it so do you mean that the lease's demise included land/property from both neighbouring properties perhaps. 
Either way if your lease has expired and you have not exercised your right to extend/vary the lease or acquire the freehold then I can't see how you can be the freeholder of both properties.
I'd suggest checking and confirming what is actually registered and to whom. And then seeking legal advice with regards your rights as the owner of the expired lease.
