  1. Wilson's, No 211 — ΔT 1.38
  2. Welsh National District Tartan Tartan Number: 1523. Earliest known date: 1968 The Welsh Tartan owes its origin to a Society formed in Cardiff in 1967. Its aims were cultural and political - to strengthen Celtic ties and give visible signs of being an individual nation in culture, language and dress. The colours are those of the Welsh flag. It is said that the design was based on the Lord of the Isles tartan because the present Lord is also Prince of Wales. However comparison reveals similarity only to MacDonald, MacDonald of the Isles, or perhaps Applecross district. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.44

  5. Elphinstone Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 115. Earliest known date: 1842 The village of Elphinstone is next to Tranent near Edinburgh in East Lothian. Sir Henry Elphinstone of Pittendriech in Midlothian was created Baron Elphinstone in 1509 and fell at Flodden Field. The Elphinstone tartan first appeared in the text of the Vestiarium Scoticum (1842). It is similar to some extent with the Montgomerie tartan and to the Montgomerie Hunting sett, suggesting a link to an early provenance. D.W. Stewart (1893) maintained that he could date the Montgomerie of Eglinton to 1707. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.58
