Historical Significance
The Ford and Etal District Tartan is steeped in the rich heritage of Scotland, tracing its origins back to the Scottish Highlands where tartans were traditionally worn by clans as a symbol of identity and belonging. Each pattern represented a specific clan or region, often signifying loyalty, pride, and community ties. The tartan became particularly significant during the Jacobite uprisings, where it served as a powerful emblem of resistance and unity among the Scottish people. Notable figures such as Sir Walter Scott have contributed to the popularity of tartan, helping to revive and celebrate this integral part of Scottish culture.
