'''Falkland Historic Buildings''' is a [[wiki]] that aims to record images and {{tag|information}} about the listed {{tag|building}}s, and other interesting or {{tag|History|historic}} buildings and structures, in Falkland, Fife, {{tag|Scotland}}.  It was created as a way to preserve and display the outcome of The Falkland Listed Buildings Survey, which aimed to capture information about the listed buildings, and other historic buildings and [https://HistoricFalkland.Scot/wiki/index.php?title=List_of_scheduled_monuments_in_the_Parish_of_Falkland structures], in the [https://HistoricFalkland.Scot/wiki/index.php?title=Falkland_Conservation_Area Falkland Conservation Area], extending subsequently to the historic [https://HistoricFalkland.Scot/wiki/index.php?title=Parish_of_Falkland Parish of Falkland].  The need for such a survey arose partly out of the work of editing the book ''[https://FalklandSociety.org.uk/newbook.shtml Falkland and its People 1901–1913]'', published by [https://HistoricFalkland.Scot/wiki/index.php?title=Falkland_Society The Falkland Society] in 2020.

Falkland is very rich in historic and interesting buildings.  Very many of them are [https://HistoricFalkland.Scot/wiki/index.php?title=List_of_listed_buildings_in_the_Parish_of_Falkland Listed Buildings] – buildings listed by [https://portal.HistoricEnvironment.Scot Historic Environment Scotland] (HES) for their special {{tag|Architecture|architectural}} or historic interest.  But it's not easy to find out about the buildings, or even where they are.  Many of the buildings are listed in the HES records by names that bear no relation to their current addresses.
