Land Charges Fees

Any LLC1 requests will need to be sent to Land Registry. 

As a local authority, we provide support for the CON29O or CON29R questions.

We are responsible for maintaining the local land charges register and checking source data on local planning, building control and environmental health issues.

When buying property or land, your solicitor will contact us to enquire about any restrictions on the land.
