uk inheritance

Can i please ask a general question.    Has anyone who is tax-resident in Spain received an inheritance in UK?   Inheritance tax has to paid in UK of course, but is it then necessary/desirable to declare everything to the Spanish tax authorities?  Looks like a right pain in terms of bureaucracy, and I would be grateful for advice.   Thanks a lot!
