(1) Where any land has been registered both as common land and as a town or village green, and the registration authority is informed under section 6 of the Act that one of the registrations of the land has become void, the authority shall cancel in each register the notes made pursuant to paragraph (1) of General Regulation 14 (Double registration of land), and shall transfer from the register wherein the registration of the land has been cancelled to the other register every entry to which this regulation applies, in the following manner:—
(a) every entry shall be allotted a fresh number and shall be dated as of the date when so transferred, but in the left-hand column of the register sheet, below such number and date, shall appear “(Formerly No…dated … in Register Unit No.…)”;
(b) references to land in column 4 of the rights and ownership sections of the original register containing expressions valid only in relation to that register shall be adapted as necessary; and
(c) the register map shall be amended as necessary.
(2) This regulation applies to every entry mentioned in paragraph (2) of General Regulation 14 except a registration under section 4 of the Act which has become void or has not become final or a note relating to such a registration, and, in the case of a registration which has become final with modifications, applies to the registration with those modifications.
