From 12 May 2025 Wychavon District Council will no longer provide a Local Land Charges Register (LLC1) search service. After this date our LLC1 will have migrated to HM Land Registry’s national register, which is due to go live on 12 May 2025, for more information visit GOV.UK.
From 12 May 2025 the LLC1 searches will only be available via HM Land Registry’s new digital service through Portal, Business Gateway and on GOV.UK pages.
Wychavon District Council will however continue to provide replies to Con29 and Con29O enquiries.
To facilitate the above, and allow time for staff to update systems, etc., we will not be able to accept any searches that include an LLC1 request after 5pm on Friday 2 May 2025.
