Property Search

Staffordshire County Council makes a charge to cover the administrative costs of providing Rights of Way information for property searches.

The first property of each request costs £7.50, with each subsequent property in the request costing £2.50. For example a request for one property will cost £7.50. A request for five properties will cost £17.50.

This administrative fee does not include the cost of producing maps. Maps will be provided where a property is directly traversed by a right of way, for no extra charge. Where a path or bridleway passes close to a property a brief description of the relevant part of the route will be incorporated in the response letter. Maps for these instances can be provided, but will incur a further charge.

If you would like to commission a Public Rights of Way property search,
please click here to download a Property Search Request Form.

Alternatively, a form can be requested via email from:

rowpropertysearch@staffordshire.gov.uk

Where possible a property search request must use this form and should be accompanied by an illustrative map. Information provided on maps should reflect the full extent of the property concerned.

To avoid delay, please pay close attention to the correct spelling of search addresses. When making a request by e-mail correspondence must be sent to:

rowpropertysearch@staffordshire.gov.uk.

A full billing address must be included on each correspondence. Invoices for property searches will be raised on, at most, a monthly basis.
