ChancelCheck Searches

The ChancelCheck searchis a unique, instant, low cost chancel repair liability screening report designed for the conveyancing profession.

ChancelCheck combines historical parish boundary data, modern Geographical Information System (GIS) mapping techniques and information derived from the relevant Inland Revenue Index held by the National Archive. We also offer insurance products both for when a potential liability is identified, or when no search is obtained.
