Cupar is a town, previous royal burgh and church in Fife, Scotland. It lies in between Dundee and Glenrothes. According to a 2011 population quote, Cupar had a population around 9,000, making it the nine biggest negotiation in Fife, as well as the civil church a population of 11,183 (in 2011). It is the historical county town of Fife, although the council currently rests at Glenrothes. The community is thought to have expanded around the site of Cupar Castle, which was the seat of the constable and also was owned by the earls of Fife. The location became a centre for judiciary as the county of Fife and as a market town providing for both cattle and sheep. Towards the last stages of the 13th century, the burgh came to be the website of a setting up of the 3 estates – clergy, the aristocracy as well as burgesses – arranged by Alexander III in 1276 as a precursor of the Parliament of Scotland. Although written details of a charter for the modern-day community was lost, evidence recommended that this existed as one of the many residential or commercial properties possessed by the Earls of Fife by 1294. During the center of the 14th century, the burgh started to pay custom-mades on taxable incomes, which possibly implied that royal burgh condition was granted sometime in between 1294 and 1328. The earliest file, referring to the royal burgh, was a grant by Robert II in 1381 to offer a port at Guardbridge on the River Eden to aid enhance trade with Flanders. This grant was officially identified by James II in 1428.
