    Peter, this is SO cool! It is a wonderful tartan and that is a gorgeous herringbone selvege. It reminds me a bit of the Fraser of Struy with the colours and stripes. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. You really are adding so much to our knowledge of this amazing history.

    Best,
    Adam

    Glad it staying in country, and didn't just go to a personal collection.
