Land Referencing

Land referencing is the formal investigation of rights held in land. It includes data relating to factors including ownership, environmental investigation and property rights.

Millar & Bryce have a highly regarded track record in supporting the development of road and rail schemes, pipeline installation and commercial development and regeneration schemes. A growth area in Scotland is onshore and offshore renewable energy projects.

Land referencing is often supported by additional services such as provision of books of reference, land plans, and notices and schedules. Millar & Bryce are naturally experienced in collating such ancillary documentation.
