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.
Land Registry Plans for Folkestone Leasehold & Freehold Property

Plans for Property Splits or Part Transfers — for separating part of a building or parcel from a larger title.
HM Land Registry Compliant Lease Plans Folkestone
Lease plans are especially relevant in Folkestone because many period properties have been converted into flats alongside purpose-built apartment developments.
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.
For conversions or complex arrangements where the demise is not obvious from existing paperwork, LiDAR measured survey data helps us record the internal layout and associated areas accurately.
HM Land Registry Compliant Title Plans Folkestone
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 Folkestone, title plans may be needed for terraced and detached homes, garden land, split plots, access arrangements or property transactions where the general extent must be represented 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.
