United Burghs
The Act united a number of adjacent burghs under a single town council (listed in Schedule 2):
- Kilrenny, Anstruther Easter and Anstruther Wester
- Elie, Liberty & Williamsburgh and Earlsferry
- Bonnyrigg and Lasswade
- Blairgowrie and Rattray
- Kirkcaldy and Dysart
Where any of the merging towns was a royal burgh this status was to be continued in the united burgh.
