Unregistered land in English law
![The Chancel Repairs Act 1932, requiring contributions for local church repairs, accelerated land registration[1] because it always takes effect against unregistered land, but only with a notice on registered land after 2013. It was held compatible with the ECHR in Parish of Aston Cantlow v Wallbank.[2]](/uploads/202502/18/Aston_Cantlow,_St_John_the_Baptist,_Geograph_2548034_925812432130.jpg)
Unregistered land in English law is land that has not been registered with HM Land Registry. Under the residual principles of English land law, for unregistered land proof of title is based upon historical title deeds and a registry for certain charges under the Land Charges Act 1972.
