Sporting estates
19 Scottish sporting estates, and what the registers say about who holds them. 12 are held through a company registered at the estate, 2 through another route, and 5 are not established.
Land ownership in Scotland is not published as a dataset. This page is assembled from the registers that do exist: a company whose registered office is the estate, the officers filed against that company, the charity register where a trust holds the land, and the register of persons holding a controlled interest in land, which is searchable free by postcode and by name. A registered office at an estate proves how the estate is administered and not who owns the land: the title itself is a paid search of the Land Register of Scotland, one title at a time, and Keek does not hold it. Directors are named because Companies House publishes them as officers of companies. This is not a list of every sporting estate in Scotland.
