019 | [situation] N. [North] West portion of the Parish of Crail. This name applies to a large district of land in North West end of the Parish of Crail, which some 30 years ago was a wild uncultivated moor, but now entirely reclaimed and divided into farms. It derived its name from being at one time the property, and also a favourite hunting ground of one of the Kings of Scotland, who afterwards bestowed it on one of his favourites - it is now the property of George Hannay Esq. of Kingsmuir House. |

Ordnance Survey - Fife and Kinross counties
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the counties of Fife in the east of Scotland and Kinross in central Scotland. The boundaries of these counties were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
