 Keith is an amalgamation of two communities, Old and New Keith united and enlarged in 1750 by James Ogilvy, 5th Earl of Findlater and 2nd Earl of Seafield, and Fife. The Burgh stands on land which was once part of the Regality of Keith and Strathisla which was held by the Cistercian Abbey of Kinloss by grant from King William the Lion (1165-1214).
