Personal search of the Local Land Charges Register

Note

We are currently in the process of migrating our Local Land Charges Register to HM Land Registry National Register.

Once our Register has migrated you will be able to carry out your Personal Searches of the Local Land Charges Register, either directly through their website or via a link on ours. You will no longer need to book an appointment/attend our offices. A web link will be provided once the service has gone live.

You will still need to submit any Con29 searches through to us in the usual way.

As a guide, we are aiming to go live with HMLR in the middle of January 2025, but a notice and web link will be added to this page once this has happened.


A personal search is a search of the Local Land Charges register which you can carry out yourself free of charge at the Civic Centre, Addlestone. You will need to book an appointment. 

Appointment times are as follows

  • Monday to Friday 9am, 10am, 11am, 2 pm and 3pm

The quickest way to book an appointment is online and it takes less than a couple of minutes.
