- Caledonia No 155 District Tartan Tartan Number: 1356. Earliest known date: 1819 Popular in the eighteenth century and appears in a number of guises. Romantic stories are told of its origin but in reality little is known. (G.Teall). J. Scarlett asserts that Wilson's No 155 has never been named, and that Miss Margaret MacDougall was in error when she included it in Robert Bain's 'Clans and Tartans of Scotland' (1953) as Caledonia. It is included here because of its obvious family resemblance to other Caledonia setts. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.10
