Locate and reclaim your ancestral land parcel

We are these lands. Families across the country may still hold rights in parcels their ancestors farmed for generations. Our AI agents help locate the records, rebuild your family's story and set out, with sources, how the land changed hands, so you can seek repossession or reparations.

The story

For centuries, the land was the familyRead more

For hundreds of years families farmed the same fields, under the same names, in the same parish. The industrial economic era changed that. Farms and smallholdings were turned into dense housing, roads and estates, and towns and cities grew into tightly packed streets.

Today many people own nothing of the land beneath them, cut off from their history, their heritage, their ancestry and, above all, their ancestral land.

A new era, 100 times fasterRead more

The industrial era took two centuries to reshape the countryside. The AI era is a new economic era, and we believe it is sweeping through the land around 100 times faster.

That same speed can now work for families. AI agents can read archives, tithe maps, land registers, court records and old newspapers in hours rather than years.

What happened to one familyRead more

The Williams–Buckler family held Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr) in Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan, for generations. The family asserts the land was lost through a process that was never fully disclosed.

What happened to the Williams–Buckler family appears to be repeated across the country: families who may have lost their land to a century of planning and development, often without ever seeing the records.

Your estate, reconstructed with AIRead more

Your subscription uses the Williams–Buckler case as its blueprint. Everything done for Great House Farm becomes the template for your family. We aim to build:

  • a personal legal wiki explaining how your family's land may have been lost;
  • one chronology, from the earliest record to today;
  • records requests (FOI, EIR and subject access) drafted and tracked;
  • a title trail linking deeds, plans and registers;
  • a search for evidence of concealment, fraud or government involvement;
  • and, where evidence is found, a clear report that can be passed to a lawyer, who may seek to reopen the matter and seek reparations or repossession.

While subscriptions keep coming in, we keep working to find and help other families.

A records and evidence service, not a law firm. No outcome is promised.

Helping reopen the primary casesRead more

Every subscription also helps fund the family's effort to seek to reopen and set aside the two primary cases: BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] and Buckler v United Kingdom (ECHR, 1989), on grounds the family asserts of fraud, concealment and government involvement.

Strength in numbersRead more

Families whose stories echo the Williams–Buckler case may later be invited to join any group action, if one is brought.

Subscribing does not make you a party to any claim, and no group action has been started.
