    another tartan ID question

    I'm travelling and don't have my tartan books.

    What tartan might this be? Thanks!

    It's George Watson's College, designed by D. C. Dalgliesh Ltd in the 1990's for the Governors of the College.

    Thanks!

    I see that it's worn by the various George Watson's College Pipe Bands (from photos they have a huge number of pipers, and field at least two pipe bands).

    By the way in the World Pipe Band Championships programme the tartan is listed as "Watsonian".
