Arran District Tartan Tartan Number: 381. Earliest known date: 1982 The Arran District tartan is a modern sett introduced by MacNaughtons of Pitlochry in 1982. It has recently been produced with a colour modification by Lochcarron Mills in Galashiels. The unusual ever decreasing stripe effect is taken from a pattern book of old plaids found on the Isle of Arran. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015
