Legal & Boundaries The Legal Boundary When land is transferred between parties the Transfer of Title is generally done by a Deed of Conveyance. The Deed of Conveyance may describe in words the extent of the land being transferred. The Deed of Conveyance may also have a plan or diagram appended that more precisely defines the land being transferred. The Title may even be registered with HM Land Registry in which case the extent of the land will be on the filed Plan in the Certificate of Title. So - where can there be a problem? None of the above will guarantee that the Legal Boundary is the same as the position defined by the Deed, the plan, the Certificate of Title or even by any Physical Boundary that exists on the ground. If you need to establish your boundary, or suspect that encroachment may have taken place or, worse still, are already in dispute with your neighbour - then you need the advice of a qualified Land Surveyor.
