How do I find out who owns a piece of land or property if it is not in the Councils ownership?

You can make enquires regarding land ownership via the Land Registry. There is a small charge for this service. The Council cannot provide information regarding the ownership of land or property owned by third parties.

How do I find out who has responsibility for the boundary to my property?

You should view your property Deeds or registered title for the property. Registered Title documents can be obtained from Land Registry. If this does not identify the owner consider the following options:

If the adjacent piece of land or property is owned by the Council, we may be able to identify the owner of the boundary.  

If the land is privately owned, and registered, then you should contact the Land Registry.  If the land is un-registered then the Land Registry will not have the appropriate records and you may need to make local enquiries which may include the appropriate Parish, Town or District or City Council.

Any land or property for sale or rent on the open market will normally be advertised by Agents and a link to the marketing details included on the website.
