Request for a list of vacant crofts in and around the Argyll and Bute area.
While we can provide the number of vacant crofts within a specific area, we are unable to provide an itemised list. The number of crofts that are vacant legally under Section 23(10) of the Crofters (Scotland) Act 1993, is not the same as vacant physically i.e. empty. As many crofts that are legally vacant, the owner lives on and uses the croft, but because the owner is not an "owner-occupier crofter" in terms of the legislation, the croft is classified legally as vacant.
