I inherited a property from my mother several years ago.If I were to sell it would I be liable for Capital Gains tax?The property is not my principal residence.

Yes - If there was a gain made from the date the property became yours.

Unlikely a gain has been made in the current market.
 
Only is sales proceeds exceed the value at the date of death.

Note you might be asked to explain how the property was used in the intervening years so if rented, make sure you have declared the rent for taxes.
