Preamble reciting an Act of the Scottish Parliament, 1685.
Whereas by the Entail Act 1685—all His Majesty’s subjects are empowered to taillie their lands and estates in Scotland with such provisions and conditions as they shall think fit, and with such irritant and resolute clauses as to them shall seem proper; and which taillies, when completed and published in the manner directed by the said Act, are declared to be real and effectual against purchasers, creditors, and others whatsoever: And whereas many taillies of lands and estates in Scotland, made as well before as after passing the said Act, do contain clauses limiting the heirs of entail from granting tickets or leases of a longer endurance than their own lives, for a small number of years only, whereby the cultivation of land in that part of this kingdom is greatly obstructed, and much mischief arises to the publick; and which must daily increase, so long as the law allowing such entails subsists, if some remedy be not provided: Wherefore, to prevent a mischief and inconveniency so hurtful to the publick.

[1.] Proprietors of entailed estates may grant tacks for 14 years, and one existing life; or for 2 lives, and life of survivor; or for 31 years.
It shall and may be lawful to every proprietor of an entailed estate within . . . Scotland, to grant tacks or leases of all or any part or parts thereof for any number of years not exceeding fourteen years from the term of Whitsunday next after the date thereof, and for the life of one person to be named in such tacks or leases, and in being at the time of making thereof; or for the lives of two persons to be named therein, and in being at the time of making the same, and the life of the survivor of them; or for any number of years not exceeding thirty-one years from the term aforesaid.

2 Specification of terms in which lands so leased are to be inclosed.
Provided always, that every such lease for two lives shall contain a clause obliging the tenant or tenants to fence and inclose in a sufficient and lasting manner all the lands so leased within the space of thirty years, and two third parts thereof within the space of twenty years, and one third part thereof within the space ten years, if the said lease shall continue for such respective terms; and that every such lease for any term of years exceeding nineteen years, shall contain a clause, obliging the tenant or tenants to fence and inclose in like manner all the lands so leased during the continuance of such term, and two third parts thereof before the expiration of two third parts of such term, and one third part thereof before the expiration of one third part of such term.

3 Lease for 2 lives, or more than 19 years, to oblige tenant to keep fences in repair, and to leave them so at expiration. Not more than 40 acres to be comprehended in one field, except where lands are improper for culture by the plough.
And provided also, that every such lease for two lives, or for any term of years exceeding nineteen years, shall contain a clause obliging the tenant or tenants to keep and preserve the fences, when made, in good and sufficient repair during the lease, and to leave them so at the expiration thereof; and that no inclosures which shall be made, shall comprehend more than forty acres in one field; excepting where the lands consist of hills or other grounds incapable or improper by their nature for culture by the plough; in which case, the inclosures may be made of such extent as the nature of the ground shall require.

4 Building leases may be granted for 99 years.
And whereas the building of villages and houses upon entailed estates may, in many cases, be beneficial to the publick, and might often be undertaken and executed, if heirs of entail were empowered to encourage the same by granting long leases of lands for the purpose of building: Be it therefore enacted by the authority aforesaid, that it shall be, and it is hereby declared to be, in the power of every proprietor of an entailed estate, to grant leases of land for the purpose of building, for any number of years not exceeding ninety-nine years.

5 But not for more than 5 acres to one person; conditionally, that one dwelling-house be built, etc. for every half acre.

25 On judgment obtained against heir for whole debt created by improvements, defender to be liable in full costs; if otherwise, court to award costs at discretion.
And if any heir of entail, against whom a debt is created for improvements made on the entailed estate to which he succeeds, shall refuse to pay the money required of him under the authority of this Act, and that decrees shall be obtained against him for the whole of the sum or sums of money of which he shall be required to make payment; in every such case the defender shall be liable in full costs of suit; and if decree is not obtained for the full sum or sums of money of which payment has been required, it shall be in the discretion of the court to award costs of suit to either party, as the justice of the case shall direct.

And whereas questions may arise concerning the amount of the sums laid out under the authority of this Act, at a great distance of time, when the material witnesses may be dead: For remedy whereof and for ascertaining, in due time, the amount of the sums so expended: it shall and may be lawful for every heir of entail, after he shall have laid out money upon the improvement of his entailed estate as aforesaid, and shall have completed the improvement of all or any particular part of such estate, to bring, if he shall think proper, an action of declarator before the Court of Session, or a process before the sheriff, in which he shall call the heir next intitled to succeed after the heirs of his own body, and shall in such suit produce proper evidence of the money laid out in such improvements; and the said next heir, or any other heir of entail, shall be intitled to produce proper evidence to set aside or diminish the said claim: and it shall and may be lawful for the said Court of Session, or for the said sheriff, to pronounce a decree for such part of the said sum, as, by the true intent and meaning of this Act is intended to become a charge against the succeeding heirs in the said entailed estate; which decree, if pronounced by the sheriff, shall become final, unless carried to the Court of Session by suspension within six months after the same shall have been pronounced; and if pronounced by the Court of Session, either in such process of declarator or suspension, shall be final if an appeal is not brought within twelve months.

27 Heir of entail building mansion-house, etc. to be a creditor to succeeding heir for three fourth parts of the expence:

Provided always, that the sum or sums of money laid out by any one heir of entail, in the building a mansion-house or offices, or in the repairing or adding to the mansion-houses or offices, shall not, in any case whatever, be effectual to constitute a claim against the succeeding heir of entail for more than two years rent of the said entailed estate, after deduction of all publick burdens, life rents, and interests of debts, which may affect the said estate, as the same shall happen to be at the first term of Whitsunday after the death of the heir who expended the money claimed.

29 Proprietors laying out money, to give notice, and record copies thereof.
Provided also, that the proprietor of the entailed estate, who lays out the money, shall, previous thereto, give notice in writing to the heir of entail next entitled to succeed to the said estate after the heirs of his own body; and record copies of the same, together with the accounts of the money expended, and the vouchers thereof, in the sheriff court books of the county within which the mansion-houses and offices are situated, in the form and manner above directed with regard to monies expended in making improvements upon entailed estates.

30 Persons having right to claim for money expended by proprietor in building mansion-house, etc. may, within a year after decease, require heir succeeding to pay the whole, with interest: and on non-payment for three months, may sue.
And the executor or executors, assignee or assignees, or other person or persons having right to the claim arising from money expended by the proprietor of an entailed estate, in the building a mansion-house or offices, or in the repairing or adding to the mansion-house or offices upon his estate, may, after the expiration of one year from the death of the heir who expended the money, require the heir next succeeding to the estate to pay the whole; or such part thereof as is due by the authority of this Act, with the legal interest from the term at which the succeeding heir’s right to the rents of the estate did commence, upon receiving a proper discharge and assignment of the said claim; and if the money is not paid within three months of such requisition, it shall be lawful for the person or persons having right, to sue the next succeeding heir in the manner above directed for the recovering of money expended in the improvement of entailed estates.

31 Rules enacted with respect to proprietors making improvements extended to claims here mentioned.
And the same rules of relief among succeeding heirs of entail, and their heirs and successors, of the claim of debt, and of preference in competition for rents, and in subjecting defenders to the payment of costs, and for ascertaining the amount of the sum laid out, shall take place with regard to monies expended in the building, repairing, or adding to the mansion-houses or offices upon entailed estates under the authority of this Act, as are before enacted, with respect to monies expended by proprietors of entailed estates, in making improvements upon their estates for increasing the rents and value of them.

32 Proprietors of entailed estates impowered to exchange lands:
And whereas it may frequently happen, that the inclosing of lands in Scotland may be retarded or prevented, or at least rendered inconvenient, by heirs of entail not having it in their power to exchange small parcels of the lands of their entailed estates for other lands convenient for the entailed estate; and more conducive to the improvement of the country in general: For remedy whereof, it shall and may be lawful for proprietors of entailed estates to excamb or make exchanges of land, with all and every person or persons, for the conveniency and advantage of the said estates, and for the improvement of the country where such estates are situated, by inclosing or otherways.

33 Limitation of quantity to be exchanged; for which an equivalent is to be made from lands contiguous. Value of lands exchanged, how to be adjusted, and property thereof determined.
Provided, that not more than thirty acres of arable land, nor more than one hundred acres of lands consisting of hills or other grounds incapable or improper by their nature for culture by the plough, of such entailed estates, lying together in one place or plot, shall be given in exchange; and that an equivalent in land, contiguous to the entailed estate with which the exchange is to be made shall be received in place of the land given in exchange: and for ascertaining and adjusting the value of the lands proposed to be exchanged, an application shall be made for that purpose by the proprietor of the entailed estate, to the sheriff or steward of the county within which the entailed estate is situated, who thereupon shall appoint two or more skilful persons to inspect and adjust the value of the lands proposed to be excambed or exchanged; and upon such persons settling the marches of the lands proposed to be exchanged, and reporting upon oath that the exchange will be just and equal, the sheriff or steward may, and is hereby required to authorize the exchange to be made by a contract of excambion; and which being executed and recorded in the sheriff or steward books within three months after the execution thereof, the same shall be effectual to all intents and purposes; and the land given in exchange to the entailed estate shall be held to be a part thereof, and shall be subject to all the prohibitory, irritant, and resolutive clauses of the entail, in the same manner as if it had been originally a part of the estate; and the lands given from the entailed estate shall from thenceforth be held as out of the entail and be liberated from all the prohibitory, irritant, and resolutive clauses thereof.
