Scottish land owners are legally entitled to use the title of Laird.
When registered you will own a piece of land in Scotland and will be a Laird.
You will then be sent an official personalised land ownership certificate along with a ‘Proof of Title’ card.
...
Once registered you will be legally entitled to use the title Laird at any time you wish or you can carry on using your original title.
My exexexex girlfriend is a lady through this scheme.
I believe its complete balls just like the "acres of moon" or "name a star" but at the end of the day it earnt me an astronomical
amount of brownie points.
Cool... my garden is about an acre, so think I may look into becoming Laird Scootz!
I am! Lord of Lochaber.
I own 1m^2 of land in a scottish highland estate. its a preservation sponsorship scheme under the guise of a bit of fun.
I am entitled to go and visit my land i believe, I feel like going and putting up a sign saying "get orf my land"
