Royal Family banned from 175-year-old tradition after 'lease' expires at Scottish estate

       The British Royal Family has been banned from hunting at the Abergeldie estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, bucking a tradition that's nearly as old as the United States itself.

       The New York Post is reporting that the new owners of the estate — which is near Balmoral Castle — banned the tradition by ending the so-called "Royal Lease."

       The new owner, Alastair Storey, laid down the law and said that he plans to "revamp the grounds," based on paperwork he filed not long ago.

       And Storey has made it clear that he's not kowtowing to anyone, regardless of their status.

       “For the last 175 years, the Royal family have leased the sporting rights at Abergeldie but this has now ceased, and will be actively run by the new Laird,” docs filed with Aberdeenshire council state.

       “To facilitate the transformation and to effectively run the estate, new facilities will be required.”

       The 70-year-old says he wants to open the estate for commercial hunting, as well as for tourists and other paying visitors to tour the estate.

       Storey's purchase of the property also removes the estate from the ownership of the Gordon clan, who owned it for more than 500 years.

       According to the outlet, the royal family reportedly is okay with the course of things.

       The so-called "royal lease" dates back to 1852, when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert first bought Balmoral Castle.

       The late Queen Elizabeth also had no issue paying increased fees to lease the land, either.

       Now, however, King Charles III will not be able to use the property that his family had used for so many centuries.
