Amalgamation (land)
Adam37: Expanding article. Citations added.
'''Amalgamation''' in [[English land law|English and Welsh land law]] is a simple process carried out in [[registered land]] to combine neighbouring parcels (holdings) of land which are freehold. However [[leasehold]] land interests (which can be at any [[storey]]), respective surrenders and a new combined lease and its registration instead is the process used: combination of leases.
==Statute and regulations==
A small fee is payable to HM Land Registry rule 3 of the [[Land Registration Act 2002|Land Registration Rules 2003]] for amalgamation or subdivision.<ref>https://ift.tt/2FFuZdt>
==Effects==
A single title which a larger plot shown in its associated title plan results. It avoids:
*Duplication of data.
*The risk of a part of the land being forgotten in a mortgage or sale.
*Inappropriate boundary features (fences/railings) being inadvertently installed on the ground between two parcels in common ownership.
It enables:
*New subdivision of the land (sometimes called [[severance]]), in deed termed transfers of part, which may be planned using a pre-approved Estate Plan submitted to the [[Land Registry]]
*Owners of subsidiary interests (e.g. mortgage lenders) a more solid security and certainty as to the totality of the estate.
*In re-attachment corrections or alterations of title a closer match to the original title in which the land originally belonged.<ref>"Where a transfer[(s) is] by way of correction or alteration the applicant may wish to apply for amalgamation with an existing title, so that the ultimate registrations match as closely as possible the position that would have applied if the original transfer had not required correction or alteration." HM Land Registry Practice Guide 68 (PG68) https://ift.tt/2js7qwj>
It results in a slightly lengthier title register than a single one of the contributor titles where, just as on first registration of land which once had different ownership, the titles vary in their [[easement]]s and [[covenant]]s.
