‘Chapter 1 of Part 2 of the Land Registration Act 2002 (“the Act”) is entitled “First Registration”, and section 3 applies to any unregistered estate in land (section 3(1)(a)). Subject to certain exceptions, a person may apply pursuant to section 3(2)(a) to the registrar to be registered as the proprietor of a legal estate to which section 3 applies if the estate is vested in that person.’
