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 pounds residential and 132 commercial. One line on the fee schedule exists nowhere else in the country: a stone mine enquiry at 37.50 pounds, 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 Management Packs and Searches in Bath
Management packs and searches in Bath, and across Somerset, is 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.
Our fee for that is a fixed annual amount with no commission on contractor work, so the advice above costs the building nothing extra when it turns into a job.
How This Works, in General
The law here is the same in Bath as it is anywhere in England, and it is set out in full on our Leasehold Conveyancing & Management Packs page rather than repeated on this one. What changes locally is above: the authority, the figures, and what the tribunal has actually done with cases nearby.
