Buteshire or Bute is an island county off the west coast of Scotland. Buteshire consists of the Isle of Bute and the Isle of Arran, and smaller islands such as Great Cumbrae and Little Cumbrae. Although Arran encompasses most of the shire's land, it has a sparse population and the main settlements are on Bute.
