A burgh of barony is a type of Scottish town burgh . They were distinct from royal burgh s as the title was granted to a tenant in chief, a landowner who held his estates directly from the crown. In distinction, burgh of regality burghs of regality were granted to lords of regality , leading noblemen, and had wider civil and criminal law powers . They were created between 1450 and 1846, and conferred upon the landowner varying trading rights for example the right to hold weekly markets or to trade overseas . In practice very few burghs of barony developed into market towns. Over 300 burghs of barony and regality were created the last was Ardrossan in 1846. From 1833 inhabitants of such burghs could form a police burgh governed by elected commissioners. In some cases the existing burgh continued to exist alongside the police burgh. Remaining burghs of barony and regality were abolished in 1893 by the Burgh Police Scotland Act, 1892 . Where a police burgh had been formed it absorbed the burgh of barony, in other cases the burgh was dissolved. From that date there was no practical difference between burghs of barony and other police burghs, though a distinction was still sometimes made. For instance, in 1957 Lord Lyon introduced distinctive burghal coronets to be displayed above the arms of burghs matriculated by his office a coronet suitable to a burgh of barony was a red mural crown , whereas that for a police burgh was blue in colour. ref R M Urquhart, Scottish Burgh and County Heraldry , London 1973 ref All burghs were abolished in 1975 by the Local Government Scotland Act 1973 . However, hereditary feudal titles formally attached to the lands have been preserved, and are still recognized by the British crown today.

Originally, a barony was the land subject to a baron and could, in England after the Norman Conquest , consist of estates scattered throughout the country or in several regions see, for example, the barony of the earl of Pembroke , with estates in England, Ireland, and Normandy . A Middle Ages mediaeval barony might comprise more than one Manor house manor or fief , and the principal manor often had a castle .
