construction, improvement, alteration, existence or use of a road has or will
have on the surroundings of the road, the road authority may enter into an
agreement with any person interested in land adjoining or in the vicinity of
the road for restricting or regulating the use of the land either permanently
or during such period as may be specified in the agreement; and any such
agreement may, in particular, make provision for the planting and maintenance
of trees, shrubs or plants of any other description on the land and for
restricting the lopping or removal of trees, shrubs or other plants on the
land.

(2) An agreement under this Article may contain such incidental and
consequential provisions (including provisions of a financial character) as
appear to the road authority to be necessary or expedient for the purposes of
the agreement.

(3) Subject to paragraph (4), the provisions of any agreement made under this
Article with any person interested in land shall be binding on persons
deriving title from that person in respect of the land.

(4) No provision shall be enforceable by virtue of paragraph (3) against a
purchaser for money or money's worth of a legal estate in the land unless
before completion of the purchase the agreement has been registered in the
Statutory Charges Register and accordingly ... residue adds para.32 to sch.11
