Frequently asked
What land does WH SMITH RETAIL HOLDINGS LIMITED own?+
HM Land Registry's corporate (CCOD) and overseas (OCOD) ownership records show WH SMITH RETAIL HOLDINGS LIMITED as a registered proprietor of 144 titles across 119 postcode districts in England and Wales. Holdings are reported at postcode-district level: HM Land Registry publishes no link between title numbers and mapped land parcels, so this is a screening indicator rather than a set of boundaries.
Why can't I see the addresses of these properties?+
The property-address fields in HM Land Registry's ownership data are licence-restricted for anyone who is not a Public Sector Geospatial Agreement holder, so we neither hold nor display them. What we publish is the title number, the postcode district, the tenure and the recorded price paid. To confirm a specific property you would order an official copy of the register for that title.
How current is this?+
HM Land Registry publishes CCOD and OCOD monthly and this index is refreshed from the change-only files each month. Every table and map on this page carries the data month it describes. Ownership records can lag a transaction by weeks or months, so treat a portfolio as a screening picture, not a completed search.
Can I check planning constraints on this company's land?+
Yes — each district links through to its ownership page and to the free constraints checker, which screens any address in England against conservation areas, flood zones, listed buildings, green belt and 50+ other datasets.
Ownership is drawn from HM Land Registry’s corporate (CCOD) and overseas (OCOD) ownership datasets and aggregated by postcode district. HM Land Registry does not publish a link between title numbers and mapped land parcels, so this is a district-level screening indicator, not a title-plan boundary. We show the owning company, its jurisdiction, category and holding counts — not exact property addresses (their use is licence-restricted). Private individuals are never included; these datasets cover companies and organisations only.

Note: Corporate ownership reflects HM Land Registry’s record of the current registered proprietor and can lag transactions by weeks or months. Ownership is matched to a location by postcode, not by title-plan boundary, so treat it as a screening indicator — always confirm with an official copy of the register before relying on it.
