Shared access

I have a land registry deed that shows a large coloured area in yellow. this is shared access to business units and residential properties the plan is SYK392100 the coloured area is shown right up to the business units from the main road. Can someone tell me if the full shared access is for everyone including the residents and that no one person has sole ownership of this land.

Michael - the yellow tint you refer to is actually brown and the register for SYK392100 refers to it as a Note to the stated right of way for the title. The land is unregistered and you would have to check the surrounding registered titles to confirm if they also had a right of way over the same land for example. Unregistered does not mean unowned but it does mean that the legal ownership remains unrecorded.

all residents have shared access to this land what i am disputing is how can the owner of the units install a fence on land they dont soley own. no residents have given permission.

Michael - people erect and take down fences all the time. If the fence is preventing you from using the right of way as granted then it's legal advice/action you need to get/take.

what i am trying to say is the applicant has signed a planning statement saying they are the sole owner of the land which they are not. they have lied to the planning board. they should have consulted all the owners who have right of way.

Michael - noted and appreciated but that's a matter for the planning department to consider and advise on. There's no direct link between planning and registration and the importance of whether the applicant does in fact own the land would be down to the planning department to advise you on. In my experience I am not aware that an application for planning has to include proof of actual ownership of the land.

in the planning board meeting one councillor said that they need proof the applicant does own the land but then the planning office said its a civil matter which i objected to as it ws part of the application

Noted but again not a registration issue. Land law in England and Wales is complex. In very general terms someone can go onto someone else's land and fence it or build on it - it's up to the true legal owner to evict them for example. Planning will focus on what the build is, how high, the materials used, style and local impact. Whether the applicant owns the actual land is not for them to confirm or be concerned with. Very general explanation but you do need legal advice to understand the complexities of land law and ownership and how to stop the applicant from fencing, building and more on the land - your case is against the fencing and how it denies your legal right of way.
