Submit a local land charges search

We provide searches of the local land charge register to inform people buying homes about restrictions on the land in Southwark.

Search contents

A local authority search gives you information about the property that you're buying, including:

  • planning history for the property itself
  • conservation areas
  • listed building status
  • improvement grants
  • financial charges imposed by us
  • planning agreements
  • tree preservation orders
  • publicly maintained highways

Email planning.enquiries@southwark.gov.uk to raise additional enquiries by asking about development proposals within 200 metres of the property.
