Buy farmland in England and Wales
Titles the register describes as farms and agricultural land held by companies: from single fields to whole holdings. 370 of them are currently owned by companies in insolvency, where an appointed office holder has a statutory duty to realise assets.
Corporate-owned titles the register itself describes as farmland, counted 1 September 2026. Nothing here is for sale and no owner has asked to be listed.
What the register tells you
Each title carries its HM Land Registry title number, the registered owner and the owner's Companies House record, which Land44 checks live when you open a report: current status, registered office, filings from the last six months, directors on record. Where the owner is dissolved or in an insolvency process, that is stated with what the law does next, never a guess at what anyone wants.
Questions your advisers will ask
- Occupation: agricultural tenancies can bind a buyer and are not always on the title
- Land grade and drainage, which the register does not record
- Subsidy and scheme entitlements, held separately from the land
- Water: abstraction licences and watercourse responsibilities
None of these are on the face of a search result, some are not on the register at all, and all of them belong to your own diligence with a solicitor and surveyor.
