    The Land Charges Act 1972 is a UK Act of Parliament that updates the system for registering charges on unregistered land in England and Wales. It has largely been repealed, and updated in the Land Charges Act 1925 . Background In the early 20th century, a package of reforms were made to register land in England and Wales to make conveyancing cheaper and simpler, and free land to the market. The main legislation was the Land Registration Act 1925 , the Law of Property Act 1925 , the Trustee Act 1925 , the and the Settled Land Act 1925 . However, much land was to remain unregistered. Instead, for that land not yet registered, people could choose to explicitly register interests under the Land Charges Act 1925 , and so get better protection than the common law might provide against a bona fide purchaser without notice of any equitable interest sought to be protected. In 1972, this Act was updated into the present scheme.

  1. Land Registration Act 1925

    The Land Registration Act 1925 was a act of Parliament in the United Kingdom that codified and extended the system of land registration in England and Wales . It has largely been repealed, and updated in the Land Registration Act 2002 . Background After the Land Registry Act 1862 and further attempts in 1875 and 1897 failed, as they either tried to register everything or largely relied on voluntary registration, the 1925 Act was drafted to ensure a more complete, but progressive system. The LRA 1925 was passed along with a package of reforms of the land and settlement system, including the Law of Property Act 1925 , the Trustee Act 1925 , the Settled Land Act 1925 and the Land Charges Act 1925 . Content The basic premise of the Act was that interests in registered land had to be registered in order to bind future purchasers of the property. One of the most important provisions was that if someone had not registered the interests listed in section 70, these would nevertheless override the rights of a future purchaser. In particular under section 70 1 g , a person who had an equitable interest under a trust, and who was in actual occupation of the home, would be able to claim an overriding interest. The occupant would have priority over future purchases without his consent, as if his interest had been in fact registered.
