Quality and validity

Lineage

The common good land set out in this dataset are the result of considerable research and consultation with the communities involved. The land and buildings which a burgh owned were made up of three main categories: those acquired under a statute (for example, land bought for council housing); land held on trust where a benefactor had provided for a specific trust to be administered by the fund; and Common Good property. What property now forms part of the Common Good Fund may sometimes need research, as it may not be obvious from the titles what property was acquired for.

Constraint set

Use constraints

The dataset provides details of the location and description of Common Good land from the financial records passed to Fife Council from the former Burghs and District Councils. The recorded description is not always comprehensive enough to ascertain spatial extent, hence extent of the land is not always accurately depicted and should be treated as indicative
