- Galloway District Tartan Tartan Number: 1469. Earliest known date: 1950 In contemporary correspondence Mr Hannay said that the Galloway 'everyday' tartan was 'in four shades of green with yellow and red stripe'. Cree Mills of Newton-Stewart, however, used only two shades in the manufacture on Mr Hannay's behalf. MacGregor Hastie's collection includes this sett with the pale yellow rendered in white and called Galloway Hunting. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.62
