Historical Gifts
Unique and thoughful gifts from Bygone News
Laird or Lady
You will be sent an official personalised land ownership certificate along with a ‘Proof of Title’ card. This card allows you entry into the Lairds Retreat. This is 10 acres of beautiful land in Argyll which is owned by South Angus Survival. It is located by the banks of Loch Riddon which is viewed by many as one of Scotland’s most beautiful lochs. The Laird/Lady and their party are free to camp, hike and fish on the land - full details of the retreat are enclosed in the gift box.
A map showing you the location of your plot is enclosed in your gift box. In order to preserve the natural state of the land there are no signs directing you to the plot neither are there any facilities on site. We suggest that you visit the Lairds Retreat rather that your plot.
So, forget Mr, Mrs or Miss - become a Laird or Lady!!
Family History
Once the gift has been registered they will be sent their surname history printed on an illustrative certificate. This information is provided by a team of heraldic and genealogical researchers who have researched more than 80,000 different names.
There is also a book enclosed inside the gift box called ‘The Best Beginners Guide to Tracing Your Family History’ which may help them uncover the origin of their family. There is also a blank family tree enclosed so they can record the forgotten names that they discover.
