Local land charges - personal search

What is a Personal Search?

Any member of the public is entitled to inspect the Local Land Charges Register upon payment of a statutory fee. The main users of this service are personal search companies. A solicitor may choose to use a personal search company to carry out a search on a property instead of submitting an official search through Local Land Charges.

If you rely on a personal search from a solicitor or personal company, you should be aware that a personal search does not provide all the information given on a full (LLC1 and CON29) search provided by the Local Authority. It is only a search of the Local Land charges Register (LLC1).

To view further details please choose Local Land Charges Search from the menu on the left.

The Local Land Charges Register is available for personal searches by strict appointment only between 10.00am -12.30pm & 2.00pm – 3.30pm Monday to Friday (these times may be subject to review). To make an appointment please contact a member of the Local Land Charges team below.
