From Friday 31 March 2023 we will no longer provide a Local Land Charges search (LLC1) service. Any LLC1 applications received before this date will be processed accordingly and any applications received after this date will be returned to you.
We are currently working with HM Land Registry to migrate our LLC1 service to their national digital register. We will continue with the CON29 service. It is solely the LLC1 service that is migrating to HM Land Registry.
From Thursday 13 April 2023 HM Land Registry will provide search results for local land charges searches in the West Oxfordshire District.
There will be no service available between Friday 31 March and Wednesday 12 April 2023.
