Rural Land Register

The Rural Payments Agency (RPA) is updating the mapping information held on the Rural Land Register (RLR) for all holdings within England. Maps will be updated against 2008 Ordnance Survey (OS) data. In order to access the range of land management grants available, land must be accurately registered on the RLR. The CLA is carefully monitoring the RLR Update process and is providing member comment through the RPA’s Technical Stakeholder Group and where appropriate through our Ministerial meetings. This page has been designed to help our members find answers to the most commonly asked questions.
