Advice please - discrepancy between mapsearch & title plan

Good morning. After some advice please after a lot of lost sleep with worry this week. We were about to exchange and have sold our house to first time buyers. We live in a mid terrace (not sure what year) but 1900’s and our buyers solicitor has found a discrepancy between the mapsearch and title plan As you will see on the map search it appears there is a part of unregistered land, however, this is not accurate to the shape of the garden and the title plan is accurate to the shape/boundaries of our garden. It is just a straight back rectangular shape exactly how the title plan appears. Our solicitors have been great and we are awaiting a response from Land Registry but I was just wondering if anybody could give any advice around this while we wait. The buyers solicitors are questioning what this unregistered land is, where it is and what it’s used for. However, the ‘unregistered’ part of land is within our boundaries within the title plan. Could it be that it is a mapsearch error? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. (The attached red photo is the map search, the other is the official title plan)

Good Morning Hayley - I'm sorry to read of the worry and lost sleep issues this week<br> MapSearch is simply a tool for professionals to use to identify the relevant title number(s) for a specific property/parcel of land.&nbsp;The title plan(s) are what they should be relying on to confirm the registered extent<br> They would use the tool to check for the title number. And then rely on the title plan to confirm what's actually included. If MapSearch is wrong that should not be an issue as it can be corrected at any time on request<br> Unfortunately some users feel that the MapSearch and title plan must always match before they will proceed and if they do then it's often a simple case of flagging that with us and we can then make the amendment as appropriate&nbsp;<br> I suspect there's little point in explaining the above and I would simply get in touch yourself or ask your own conveyancer to do so -&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/contact-hm-land-registry">Contact HM Land Registry - GOV.UK</a>

Good morning Adam&#160;<br> Thank you for your quick reply.&#160;<br> Can myself as owner of the house request for the map search to be amended and is this a quick/easy request? Is the map search amended by land registry? I did speak to a gentleman from Land Registry over the phone earlier in the week and he could see the discrepancy between the map search and title plan but he said it would need to be seen/looked at by (I believe) the amends team.&#160;

Hayley - no reason why you can't but if you've already spoken to a colleague then presumably that's been logged and referred already

<p>Hi Adam</p> <p>We left it as I said that the solicitors were looking into it.</p> <p>from looking at the photos I attached, would you say it’s possible that it is a map search error? The title plan reflects exactly how our garden looks. The red line going through the garden on the map search is not correct or reflective of how our garden looks. Sorry for all the questions.&#160;</p>

Hi Hayley - I would but I wouldn't even be looking at MapSearch if the title plan was 'accurate' as you state<br> I can understand why it casts doubts into minds but it's the title plan that the sale/purchase is based upon&nbsp;
