Wheadon Ancient Tartan

Historical Significance

The Wheadon Ancient Tartan is steeped in Scottish heritage, with origins dating back to the 16th century. Originally, tartans were practical fabrics in the Scottish Highlands, serving both functional and ceremonial purposes. The Wheadon family, prominent figures in Scottish history, wore this tartan to represent their clan identity, pride, and values. During pivotal moments such as the Jacobite risings, tartans like the Wheadon Ancient Tartan symbolized loyalty, resistance, and unity, securing their place in Scotland’s rich cultural legacy.
