The work on this history of the Estate of Falkland began following the AGM of the Falkland Conservation Group in April 1996 when it was suggested that the group might consider compiling a history of the estate. After an investigation into the archival material available the author began to compile this history of Falkland Estate. This is a broad-based history which uses the timeline of the ownership of the estate as its basis.
