Land and premises

Carlisle City Council provides a free vacant commercial sites search service. This includes information provided by 30 local agents, property owners and developers.

If you are looking to buy land or property in the district you will be required to carry out a local authority search. Our local land charges service provides information about local land searches and charges. It is vital to have a search carried out when buying a property as this will tell you about plans for new roads, planning agreements, tree preservation orders, listed buildings, financial charges and enforcement notices, which may affect the property.


Electronic forms

Electronic forms can be completed and submitted online, with no paper involved, which is not only our preferred method; it's kinder to the environment as well.
