Local Land Charges Register

A Local Land Charge is an entry in the Local Land Charges Register that is a restriction or prohibition on land, or a financial charge which is binding on successive owners or occupiers.

  • Tree Preservation Order
  • Listed Building
  • Conservation Area orders
  • Land Compensation 
  • Financial Charge
  • Enforcement Notice
  • Miscellaneous Notices

Information about drains and sewers cannot be provided by the Council, and a separate property search with Geodesys is required.
