Hi
Hoping to get some advise
The house I am looking ti buy was brought from the council by current owners
5 yrs after buying the house they bought an additional piece of land from the council and made this into a drive
Both the house purchase and extra land are listed on the register title page along with date etc so proof that this belongs ti house
What I am concerned and worried about is the street plan dates back pre the land being bought so the map does nit show the extra piece of land in the outline
As the purchase is written in thd register title but nit shown clearly om map would this proove a problem when selling

No, as long as the ownership boundaries are correct the fact that the underlying OS map is out of date is irrelevant.0 -

No, I meant the boundaries on the title plan showing what you own - outlined in red (or similar), yes?0 -
