    Is there not a line in the text of the title register explaining the significance? i.e. some obligation relating to the shaded area. A covenant. The name of the colour in the text might not quite match how it appears on the plan.

    I've also just posted something similar. Are there no other bits referring to the actual colours?

    No and the convenant is saying about 66 houses not be built
    It's only a small garden!

    With that dividing line there - I suspect that originally there were 2 plots of land, and the pink part has some older convenants that don't apply to the rest of the property. A bit like the example here...
    But surely these older covenants should be referred to in the current title register?

    Yours is just one property on an estate of a larger number of houses built at roughly the same time?

    But the shaded  portion  covers only  part of the property  so its a bit confusing

    Is there anything in another part of the title register, where it describes the property (rather than the covenants)?
