What Were the Old Scottish Counties?

The counties were areas of  local government administration based largely on the country's medieval sheriffdoms.  They varied enormously both in size and population - Perthshire, for example, was 45 times bigger than Clackmannanshire.  By 1975 there were 31 counties (and four city counties).  For centuries they served Scotland well and most Scots were proud to be linked with their home county.

However, in 1975 the counties  were abolished by a government which, at best, had only minority support in Scotland, and were replaced by the unloved and ill conceived Regions and Districts.   These lasted a bare 20 years and were themselves replaced in 1997 by new administrative areas for which no-one yet appears to have thought of a name.

No politician can destroy centuries of tradition with the stroke of a pen.  Kincardineshire, Banffshire, Caithness, Kirkcudbrightshire and so on may be deemed by our masters to exist no longer, but happily Scots, both at home and abroad, continue to identify with the old counties. In our view the abolition of the counties was unnecessary, unpopular, and undemocratic and we are pleased to produce kits depicting institutions that served Scotland well for centuries and still live on in the hearts of the Scottish people.  We hope to have completed all the counties by the end of this year.
