BURNTISLAND BURGH RECORDS
Administrative
History
Burntisland was created
a Royal Burgh in 1541 by King James V (1513-1542) who
recognised the usefulness of the harbour. In 1835 the
Burgh set up a Police Commission under the terms of an
1833 act ( 3 & 4 Will. IV c. 46). The Police Commissioners
were responsible for the cleansing, lighting, policing
and public health of the Burgh.
The main industries
in the town were initially trade, fishing and the ferry.
In the nineteenth century, Burntisland was the main port
for the Fife coalfield until the opening of Methil Dock.
Burntisland was the fourth largest Fife town in 1891,
with a population of 4,993. In the twentieth century,
Burntisland became a popular tourist resort. The main
employers in the town were the Burntisland Shipbuilding
Company (the shipyard closed in 1969) and the British
Aluminium factory. Burntisland Town Council was abolished
in 1975
under the
Local government (Scotland) Act 1973 (c.65). Its powers
were assumed by Fife Regional Council and Kirkcaldy District
Council. These in turn were replaced by Fife Council
in 1996 under the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act
1994 (c.39).
Custodial
History
These records came
to the Archive Centre in four parts. Town council minute
books were transferred to the Town House, Kirkcaldy,
after local government reorganisation in 1975. They were
transferred to the Archive Centre in February 1998 as
accession number 98/01. The account books of the Burgh Chamberlain
and Engineer 1913-1977 were transferred to the Archive
Centre from Burntisland Local Office in May 2000 (accession
number 00/04). A small number of files relating to town
planning and development were transferred to the Archive
Centre from the Town House, Kirkcaldy, in February 2001 (accession number 01/05).
In June 2001, a further
thirty-eight boxes of letter books, account books, and
other records were transferred to the Archive Centre
when the Burntisland Burgh Chambers were being redecorated
(accession number 01/17).
