Removing a registered charge from title deeds

Anyone know how to go about removing a registered charge from the Land Registry title register?

The charge is related to an old paid up mortgage from before I inherited the property in respect of Woolwich/Barclays.

Property is registered in our names but still has this charge listed when I got both hard copy back from solicitors and the £3 download from Land Reg website.

This something I can do myself or will I have to involve solicitor again?

I also believe Barclays still have the original deeds pack to the property.

  • When i recently paid off my mortgage with Woolwich /Barclays a quick phone call was all it took for them to sort out the account closure, they sorted out the land registry charge pretty much straight away and arranged for the deeds to be sent.

    Suggest you speak to their mortgage team on 0800 316 5500 and explain what has happened.

  • Thanks, I will phone them up next week.
