Local Land Charges in Bath
Bath and North East Somerset stopped providing LLC1 searches on 13 January 2026, when its register migrated to the national one, two and a half years after Bristol. It still answers the CON29, at £105 residential and 132 commercial. One line on the fee schedule exists nowhere else in the country: a stone mine enquiry at £37.50, because of the Combe Down and Bathampton stone mines running beneath parts of the city.
How Long a Search Actually Takes in Bath
Bath publishes the number that decides whether a sale stalls, and Bristol does not. Search results are returned by email usually within three working days, and the same standard is stated for component data requests. If a Bath sale is held up on searches, three working days is the published standard to measure it against.
What We Do About Leasehold Packs and Searches in Bath
Leasehold packs and searches in Bath, and across Somerset, are part of a full management service rather than a standalone product. What that means in practice:
- Keep the register entries and the management record consistent, so a search does not raise a question the file cannot answer.
- Tell a conveyancer what Bath and North East Somerset Council actually takes, and build the timetable on that.
Fixed annual fee, no commission on contractor work.
