Title Contains restrictions or restrictive covenants.
Here is a summary but a property lawyer can advise further: - Conveyance dated 1 September 1905 — use restriction: the owner must not use the dwelling house or premises as a public house, beerhouse, tavern, club, shop, or for any trade, manufacture or business without the prior written consent of the person entitled under the 1905 deed (Mary Ann Carse, her heirs or assigns). Plain English: you cannot run those kinds of businesses from the property unless you get written permission from the person (or their legal successors) named in the old deed. - Conveyance dated 1 September 1905 — party gables and walls provision: certain gables (except end walls), division yard and garden walls and palisades are to be treated as party gables and walls and are to be used, maintained and repaired at the joint expense of the parties named in that deed and their successors. Plain English: some walls between properties are shared; owners must share use, upkeep and repair costs for those walls. This limits your ability to alter or remove those walls without agreement and means you may have to pay part of repair costs. - Conveyance dated 13 December 1901 — unspecified restrictive covenants recorded but the original terms were not produced on first registration. Plain English: there are further old restrictions that affect the property, but the register does not show their wording. You should get a copy of that 1901 deed or an examined copy to know exactly what they say.
Title contains beneficial rights or easements.
Here is a summary but a property lawyer can advise further:- Party wall/party gable rights implied by the 1 September 1905 provision: the owners on either side have the right to use the party gables and walls and the corresponding obligation to maintain and repair them together. Plain English: you and your neighbour have shared rights and responsibilities over those shared walls — you can use them as intended and you must share the cost of keeping them in good repair.
