- Devon Companion District Tartan Tartan Number: 1283.

The accreditation certificate was presented to the Mayor of Barnstaple in 1991. In a poem describing the tartan, Miss M. Miles says, "So, in the mind, Devon's beauty is retrieved By contemplating Devon's tartan's weave." See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 0.43
