    I am considering buying a turf bank that has no title deeds. This will be purchased through an auctioneer.

    What is my exposure/risks?

    Get a solicitor, I suspect you are looking at purchasing the art rights over common age. You would not own the land, you would be acquiring rights to harvest turf.

    Thanks Marcusm, thus whom owns the land in the absence of Title deeds, the state?, Bord Na Mona?

    I actually wrote turbary rights and missed that it auto corrected. In the case of those I inherited, the land was commonage.
