Notices of Landowner Statements

Notices of landowner deposits under section 15A(1) of the Commons Act 2006 are posted below. Full details can be found on the Landowner Statements Register.

The Commons Act 2006 allows landowners to submit a statement to prevent land being registered as a town or village green, as the deposit brings to an end any period of use of the land as of right for recreation, provided the land has been used for that purpose for less than 20 years. A landowner statement triggers a two year period of grace during which local inhabitants can apply to register the land as a town or village green.

For further information about this process please see Town and Village Greens.
