Common land register search

We can search the register of common land for you.

To apply for a search:

  • write us a letter outlining your request and attach a plan, clearly indicating which land you would like us to search the register for
  • include a cheque for £10 made payable to 'East Sussex County Council'
  • address the letter to:

    East Sussex County Council
    Legal Services
    County Hall
    St Annes Crescent
    Lewes, BN7 1UE

The search will reveal whether the land is, or lies adjacent to, common land and where further information on common land and village greens can be obtained.
