Divide one title into two

How to separate titles. We have a house with land opposite on the other side of the road. Presently it is all under one registration but we would like to divide it so there are two separate LR deeds so it is compatable with our wills. Is there a form for this?

Jennifer - It is possible to split or subdivide the registered title of your property, however, if it is not as a result of a sale/transfer, it would be at the Registrar's discretion, and you would have to disclose your reasons for the request. If you wish to lodge an application: You must apply on form AP1, notifying us that a transfer is not required.<br> <br> https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/change-the-register-ap1<br> <br> You must explain in a covering letter the reason why sub-division is required. You will need to clearly identify the extent on a plan that complies with our registration requirements. You can find out information about plans in HM Land Registry plans: guide overview (PG40).<br> https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/land-registration-practice-guides<br> <br> If the land is subject to a mortgage, consent to the subdivision of title must be obtained from the lender. There is a fee of £40.00. Cheques/postal orders should be made payable to HM Land Registry. We do not currently accept card payments for applications. Please be aware that we will only consider your request once a formal application is made, and we may refuse to proceed with the application if we consider that dividing the title would not be desirable.<br> <br> And please do seek legal advice - there is rarely a need to split a registered title for the purposes of a will. Wills can describe the two parts/parcels as appropriate
