Response
Enclosed are 5 plans that show foreshore ownership (Crown and Non-Crown). The hatched areas denoted in the legend, is considered ‘presumed’ Crown Estate Scotland ownership as that area of foreshore has not undergone Land Registration with Registers of Scotland. It is considered presumed until it has undergone the land registration process. Crown Estate Scotland is in the process of registering all our land (including foreshore), and until that project is complete, un-verified areas are indicated in our systems as ‘presumed’.
