Commons Registration
The CR21 form for commons land enquiries has now been revoked for
England and Wales. This information can be obtained by requesting
the common land, town and village green optional enquiry (No22) on
the CON 29O form.
The Commons Registration Act 1965 meant that the common land, its
owner and any rights over such land had to be registered with the
appropriate county council.
When should a Common Registration search be made?
A Commons Registration search should be made if the land that is being purchased is adjacent to land that has not been developed, or land that may have previously belonged to the Lord of the manor or has been designated a town or village green.
What will a Common Registration search cover?
The search will reveal whether the land or any part of it is subject to provisional or final registration under the Commons Registration Act 1965. The existence of rights of common land will mean third parties may be able to exercise certain rights over the land. It will also be hard to obtain planning permission to develop the land.
