Old property records show changing nation

The release of property records dating to 1905 has given an insight into the changing social fabric of Scotland through the century.

The records are available online at ScotlandsPeople, the government's family history website,

Culture and External Affairs Secretary Fiona Hyslop said: "ScotlandsPeople is a wonderful gateway to Scotland's wealth of archives."

The Valuation Rolls are available at scotlandspeople.gov.uk
