Cupar
Cupar is a community, previous royal burgh and parish in Fife, Scotland. It lies between Dundee as well as Glenrothes. According to a 2011 population estimate, Cupar had a population around 9,000, making it the ninth biggest negotiation in Fife, and the civil church 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 believed to have grown around the site of Cupar Castle, which was the seat of the sheriff and was owned by the earls of Fife. The location came to be a centre for judiciary as the area of Fife and also as a market community catering for both cattle as well as sheep. Towards the latter stages of the 13th century, the burgh came to be 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 written details of a charter for the modern community was shed, evidence recommended that this existed as one of the many residential or commercial properties owned by the Earls of Fife by 1294. During the center of the 14th century, the burgh began to pay custom-mades on taxable incomes, which possibly meant that royal burgh status was provided at some point between 1294 and also 1328. The oldest paper, describing the royal burgh, was a grant by Robert II in 1381 to offer a port at Guardbridge on the River Eden to help enhance trade with Flanders. This grant was officially acknowledged by James II in 1428.
