Disclaimer: When registered, the recipient of this gift will own a square foot of land in Scotland. It is for this reason that they will become a Laird of the land.

The owner shall not receive any income or derive any other financial benefits whatsoever from their land. These are the official
titles that are given to land owners in Scotland and are the widely recognized Scottish equivalent of the English Lord or Lady title.

Wikipedia Definition of a Laird:
A Laird is a member of the gentry; historically Lairds rank below a Baron and above an Esquire in the non-peerage table of precedence in the Statutes of 1592 and the Baronetcy Warrants of King Charles I. The title is granted to the owner of a landed estate in Scotland. Laird is a shortened form of 'laverd', which is an old Scottish word deriving from an Anglo-Saxon term meaning Lord, and is also derived from the middle-English word 'lard', also meaning Lord.
