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).
