Land Registry has 2 entries for my home... how do I merge them ?

Help !  I bought a plot of land and have title absolute.

I have now built a home there so I need to get a set of deeds but there are 2 entries on Land Registry.  One is my plot of land under its Grid Reference and the other is my home by its street address which is shpwing as having no title information.

I cant see how to let Land Registry know that the 2 plots are the same and that the name of the original entry needs updating ?

Help !

Hubby thinks someone can claim our home address entry and cease ownership if I dont sort it out.

I don't think there are "two entries", you just need to update the address on your title to the new postal address. No risk of somebody stealing your property!

Can I do this myself as the AP1 asks for conveyancers details.

Yes you can do it yourself. Though are either of the titles subject to a mortgage? If so, the mortgage lender's consent will be needed.

In the meantime, sign up to the LR free Alert system.

if you’ve got 2 registered titles and both now have their own property with postal address, they don’t need to be amalgamated. 

Complete form AP1 (panels 1-7 inc and 15) and lodge it with a copy of the local authority’s letter confirming the new postal address. 

Note - merger is where a leasehold and freehold are being merged so not relevant here it seems

No sorry, what I meant is that my title deed is for my plot of land eg "plot of land to the South of The Street" but when we applied for planning, we use the new registered home address instead of using its Land Registry description.  So if I search land registry for my post code it shows my new property address with no known tenure.  What I would prefer to have is one entry under my postal address rather than 2 entries, one for my postal address and one for the land registry description of the plot.

There’s no connection between planning and how we describe a registered title. And the same in reverse so what you describe has no bearing on the search 
As the land now has a house on it then it’s a property with a postal address. Apply to update that registered title re that postal address and once done a search using its post code will reveal the title 
You can’t have one entry under your postal address as they are different. If they have the same post code, which is likely if on same road block, then a search by post code will reveal both as separate items of information. 

It’s not a customer preference service but one to enable users to search online for registered information. As you’ve now got two postal addresses then linking each to their respective titles is the way to go.

So thats where the problem lies, our title deeds do not come up on a post code search as the original deeds were lost and we have had to wait the 12 years for title absolute for the land which, at the time, had no post code listed.  

I am not sure if I am making sense but the only way you can find our land is to use the actual Title Number to search for it. 

I have sent an AP1 with £40 IRO the original SK number with proof of the new address and a planning map showing the same boundary and the new property position with in it.  I hope that works !

It's not really a "problem", other than making it slightly harder to look it up. It makes no difference to the quality of your title - you still own the bit of land outlined in red (or whatever), no matter what you call it.

But I have been told that it makes a difference to a mortgage lender ?
