  • Dysart (/ˈdaɪzərt/ ; Scottish Gaelic: Dìseart) is a former town and royal burgh located on the south-east coast between Kirkcaldy and West Wemyss in Fife. The town is now considered to be a suburb of Kirkcaldy. Dysart was once part of a wider estate owned by the St Clair or Sinclair family. They were responsible for gaining burgh of barony status for the town towards the end of the 15th century. The first record of the town was made in the early 13th century, its initial role being to settle civil matters between the church and landowners. During the middle of the 15th century, trade with the Low Countries began for salt and coal exportation. In the 16th and 17th centuries, trade expanded to the Baltic Countries. Dysart acquired two nicknames: "Salt Burgh" and "Little Holland" as a result. Following the sudden decline of the town's harbour caused by the closure of the Lady Blanche Pit, the town was amalgamated into the royal burgh of Kirkcaldy under an act of parliament in 1930. Urban clearance during the 1950s and 1960s saw large parts of the historic town demolished for new housing. Demand from the town's residents meant that part of the historic town — most notably the 16th-century and the 18th-century houses of Pan Ha' opposite the harbour — were salvaged and preserved for future generations. Today, Dysart retains an individual character within the boundary of neighbouring Kirkcaldy. (en)

  • Dysart est une ancienne ville royale située sur la cote sud-est entre Kirkcaldy et (en) dans le comté de Fife. La ville est maintenant considérée comme une banlieue de Kirkcaldy. Dysart était une partie d'un fief plus étendu possédé par la famille St Clair ou Sinclair. Ils permirent à la ville d'accéder au statut de (en) à la fin du XVe siècle. La première trace écrite du nom de la ville date du début du XIIIe siècle avec l'installation de civils à la suite d'une affaire réglée entre l’Église et les propriétaires terriens. Durant la moitié du XVe siècle, le commerce avec les débuta sur la base de l'exportation du sel et du charbon. Aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles, le commerce se développa vers les pays baltes. Dysart y acquit deux surnoms : « Salt Burgh » et « Little Holland ». À la suite de la fermeture du puits de la « Lady Blanche », la ville fut incorporée dans la ville royale de Kirkcaldy par un acte du parlement de 1930. La rénovation urbaine qui s'étendit entre les années 1950 et 1960, fit qu'une part importante de la ville historique a été démolie au profit de la construction d'habitations nouvelles. Malgré la demande pour des logements résidentiels, les bâtiments historiques, essentiellement du XVIe siècle et du XVIIIe siècle, (dont les maisons de Pan Ha' de l'autre côté du port), furent sauvegardées et préservées pour les générations futures. Aujourd'hui, Dysart garde un caractère particulier dans les limites du voisinage de Kirkcaldy. (fr)
  • Dysart (in gaelico scozzese Dìseart) è una città del Fife, Scozia, situata nella costa sud-orientale tra Kirkcaldy e West Wemyss. Nel passato Dysart faceva parte della proprietà della famiglia baronale dei Sinclair che ne aveva acquisito tale titolo alla fine del XV secolo. Della città si hanno notizie storicamente documentate a partire dagli inizi del XIII secolo. Nel XV secolo e sempre di più nei successivi XVI e XVII secolo acquisì una maggiore importanza commerciale per l'espostazione del sale e del carbone, specialmente verso i paesi baltici, tanto da essere soprannominata Salt Burgh e Little Holland. Col declinare dell'attività di esportazione, Dysart gravitò su Kirkcaldy che ne divenne polo d'attrazioneeconomico. Attualmente Dysart mantiene una propria individualità. (it)
  • Dysart (gael. An Dìseart) – miasto we wschodniej Szkocji, w hrabstwie Fife, położone na północnym brzegu zatoki Firth of Forth (Morze Północne), współcześnie stanowiące północno-wschodnie przedmieście Kirkcaldy. W 2011 roku liczyło około 1900 mieszkańców. Dysart prawa miejskie otrzymało w 1536 roku. W przeszłości miejscowość była ośrodkiem wydobycia węgla, produkcji soli, rybołówstwa, szkutnictwa, w XVIII wieku – przemysłu włókienniczego i produkcji gwoździ. Funkcjonował tu port morski, obsługujący wymianę handlową z Holandią. Współcześnie miejscowość jest ośrodkiem przemysłu spożywczego. W 1930 roku Dysart zostało wcielone dla celów administracyjnych do miasta Kirkcaldy. Z Dysart pochodził XIX-wieczny podróżnik, badacz Australii, John McDouall Stuart. (pl)
