Full Local Land Charge

The full search, also known as the standard local authority search, is a combination of an LLC1 form and a CON29R questionnaire.

Form LLC1 is an official request sent in by your solicitor and also by conveyancing companies, asking the Council to carry out a search of the Local Land Charges Register.  The register contains information from departments that are relevant to the property. This includes items such as conditional planning applications, notices served or even Listed Buildings.

The CON29 questionnaire is in two parts: R=Required (Standard information), O=Optional (Extra question such as Commons Land). An extra fee is payable for each Optional Enquiry requested.

The questions are sent to various departments of the Council and are intended to provide additional information about the property/land that is not always included on the Local Land Charges Register. Much of the information given by the Council in reply to the CON29 form cannot be obtained from any other source and most of this information is not available to those carrying out a personal search. However, if a personal search company want to request further information please see the fees list (Refined data). Please view a list of all associated fees.
