What Is a Land Registry Compliant Plan?

A plan that follows HM Land Registry (HMLR) guidance on scale, orientation, colouring and clarity so the legal extent of property can be recorded unambiguously.

Lease Plan

A lease plan defines the demised premises within a building or estate and is referenced in the lease. It shows the extent of the leased area, common parts and any associated rights.

Title Plan

A title plan illustrates the registered title extent for freehold or leasehold ownership and supports the property description in the HM Land Registry register.

What Your Plan Will Show

Boundaries & Scale

A clearly edged boundary at an appropriate scale (typically 1:100 to 1:500 for site plans and 1:100 or 1:200 for internal layouts) with dimensions where needed.

Demised Area, Common Parts & Rights

Colour-coded areas for demised premises, common parts, rights of way and areas reserved. Notes explain any shared structures or retained parts.

Access, Parking & Outbuildings

Marked entrances/exits, bin/bike stores, parking bays, garages and external spaces within or outside the demise.

When You Need a Land Registry Compliant Plan

New Leases & Sales

Required for granting or varying leases, especially where the extent differs from existing records.

Transfers of Part & Split Titles

Needed when dividing land or buildings into multiple titles or altering boundaries.

Resolving Boundary Questions

Helpful evidence in boundary clarifications and deed updates.

Transfer Plans — for transfers of part, land sales and boundary changes affecting a wider title.

HM Land Registry Compliant Lease Plans Canterbury

Lease plans are frequently needed in Canterbury for converted period properties, city-centre flats, apartments and premises with shared entrances or external areas.

They are often needed for:

  • new leases
  • lease extensions
  • lease variations
  • sales of leasehold interests
  • registration of leasehold property

HM Land Registry says you do not usually need to register leasehold land or property if there are 7 years or less on the lease, and leases granted for a term of more than seven years are compulsorily registrable.

Where the demise, common parts or access cannot be established reliably from existing documents, we can use LiDAR measured survey data to capture the layout accurately before preparing the plan.

Title plan example — Canterbury

HM Land Registry Compliant Title Plans Canterbury

HM Land Registry says the purpose of the title plan is to support the property description in the register by providing a graphic representation and identifying the general extent of the land in a registered title.

In Canterbury, that may include period properties with irregular plots, city-centre buildings, village-edge land, transfers of part or situations where access and boundary features need to be shown clearly.

Where required, we support plan preparation with LiDAR measured surveys, drone surveys for roofs and elevations, and topographical survey information — so the finished drawing is based on reliable site information, not assumption.

Precision at Every Stage

Not all Land Registry plans are prepared from the same standard of information. Where a job requires greater certainty, we support plan preparation with measured survey technology.

LiDAR Measured Surveys

Ideal for capturing accurate internal layouts and building dimensions.

Drone Surveys

Useful for elevations, roofs and harder-to-access areas where visual accuracy matters.

Topographical Surveys

Helpful where external layout, site features, boundaries and levels need to be understood clearly.
