Property Title Register, Title Plan and Burdens

The Title Register (Title Sheet) is one of the 2 main documents of title. It contains a description of the property, its tenure, the name and address of the owners, purchase price, name & address of mortgagee and details of other burdens, charges, covenants, rights, cautions, notices and restrictions.

The Title Plan is the other main document of title. It shows a detailed outline of the property in relation to its surroundings, and often (especially with larger properties) has detailed and coloured markings referred to in the Title Register that illustrate rights of way, rights of access, watercourses and sections of land affected by rights and covenants. The general boundaries of the property itself are edged in red.

Where the property is not registered we instead obtain a copy of the Sasine Register and Cadastral Map, which provide similar detail to the above.

Boundary Searches

When neighbours have an issue with regard to their property boundaries they immediately turn to their Land Registry Title Plan in the belief this will show their boundary positions. The Plan usually does not, however, because the Land Registry are obliged by statute to show boundaries in a general way only, without measurements, and without precision. There is usually no single document that will show boundaries with precision.

Without incurring the expense of surveyors and solicitors the only realistic option is to obtain a Boundary Search. This includes the Title Registers, Title Plans, Conveyancing Deeds and Deed Plans for each property, and also includes a detailed Boundary Information Pack. Even if you did use surveyors or solicitors, they would ask you to obtain these documents before taking any action. If either property is leasehold the search also includes a copy of the Lease and Lease Plan.
