A Century of the 1925 Property Legislation Conference, 08-09 September 2025Info Location Attendee Categories Additional Items Contact More Info Event Information![]()
DescriptionIn the period 1922 to 1925, a series of groundbreaking legislative enactments reframed English property law in terms favourable to alienation and a market in land, providing the basis on which much of the relevant modern law rests. The Law of Property Act, Trustee Act, Settled Land Act, Administration of Estates Act, Land Registration Act, and the Land Charges Act 1925 together set out a new vision for how rights in land, trusts, inheritance, and land registration would work. Whilst much of that legislation has now been repealed, updated, or superseded, the Law of Property Act 1925 remains the key statute for land law in England and Wales. Elsewhere, the legacies of 1925 have shaped the development of subsequent legislation, case law, and reform.
