Scottish Land League

The Scottish Land League was a political organization established in 1871 to advocate for farmers and tenant farmers' rights in Scotland. It aimed to address issues like unfair rents, land access, and tenancy security by campaigning for reforms and promoting collective action. The League sought fair treatment for rural communities, often through protests and negotiations with landowners. It played a significant role in shaping land reform movements in Scotland during the late 19th century, influencing policies that aimed to balance interests between landowners and those who worked the land.
