No rollover relief will be available on this disposal, because it is not your trade or your goodwill. (But remember that to enjoy full rollover relief you have to reinvest at least the amount of the disposal proceeds. If you pay CGT on this disposal you get to keep at least 72% of the gain).
Taper was different, the rules were relaxed in April 2004 to allow relief at the business rate from that time for an asset used in a trade by any person or partnership.
