All it is, is rent payable by the owner of a leasehold property to the freehold owner.

If you own a leasehold property then you pay this to the freehold owner. Normally for stuff like building insurance, upkeep of the grounds, etc.
Im paying something like £1000 a year for mine.

thats because ground rent isnt leasehold.
The leasehold is obviously the way in which you own the property, but ground rent is a further charge you pay yearly. Im almost certain some gated community places probably charge a ground rent to houses that are free-hold for the upkeep of the grounds.
