Cupar
Cupar is a town, former royal burgh as well as church in Fife, Scotland. It exists in between Dundee as well as Glenrothes. According to a 2011 population price quote, Cupar had a population around 9,000, making it the nine largest settlement in Fife, and the civil parish a population of 11,183 (in 2011). It is the historic county town of Fife, although the council currently rests at Glenrothes. The community is thought to have expanded around the site of Cupar Castle, which was the seat of the constable and also was had by the earls of Fife. The area ended up being a centre for judiciary as the county of Fife and as a market town catering for both cattle as well as lamb. In the direction of the last phases of the 13th century, the burgh ended up being the website of a setting up of the three estates - clergy, the aristocracy as well as burgesses - organised by Alexander III in 1276 as a precursor of the Parliament of Scotland. Although composed information of a charter for the contemporary community was lost, proof recommended that this existed as one of the many buildings owned by the Earls of Fife by 1294. During the center of the 14th century, the burgh started to pay customs on taxable incomes, which possibly implied that royal burgh condition was given at some point between 1294 as well as 1328. The oldest document, describing the royal burgh, was a give by Robert II in 1381 to provide a port at Guardbridge on the River Eden to aid boost trade with Flanders. This grant was formally recognised by James II in 1428.
