IHT & Capital Gains

I might be being stupid here, but I can't find the info on google, so wondering if someone on here might know?

I inherited a small property a few years ago and have decided to sell.
As the property was part of a larger 'estate' I paid some IHT on the property and have been paying HMRC in instalments over 10 years.
I understand when I dispose of the property I have to pay the proportion of the IHT that is due.

The thing I don't understand is when I submit my capital gains calculation, do I deduct the IHT from the capital gain?

No.

When you sell you calculate the gain, which is basically sale proceeds less the probate value.
So the gain is only on the uplift since you acquired it.
