Statutory Register Fees
The registers are available for public inspection or sending an application form for a Commons Register Search. An application Form (CR21) and a site Map will be required. Applications can be sent to or you can make an appointment to view the registers by contacting Local Land Charges Service, Dorothy Hodgkin House, 12 Reading Lane, London E8 1HJ . Copies of the registers will be provided on payment of the statutory fee of £14.00 per inspection/search.
We also carry out searches of the registers and provide certificates. Normally, a search is carried out when a property is being bought or sold. The current fee for a search is £191, with additional increments payable in certain circumstances, dependent upon the number of plots of land included in the search. We do not provide search forms, but they are available from law stationers. Search certificates will reveal whether land is registered as common or village green, if there are rights of common, and whether or not ownership is registered. For further information about searches, please use the contact details below.
