Local Land Charges

About Local Land Charges

A local search consists of two parts.
1. Restrictions on the property that are binding for successive owners e.g. Financial Charges, Tree Preservation Orders and Enforcement Notices.

2. Replies to enquiries on a nationally agreed form giving information of a more general nature eg. highway proposals, planning history and other planning related matters and outstanding notices.

All this information is supplied to the Local Land Charges Service by other council departments, the Government and outside bodies eg. Water Companies.
