Shaw of Tordarroch Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 352. Earliest known date: 1969 When Major C.J. Shaw of Tordarroch, matriculated and became the first chief of the Clan for some 400 years, he had a new tartan designed, which reflects the Clan's Mackintosh ancestry. He specifically states that the old design is still perfectly acceptable and approves its continued use by all members of the Clan. Donald Stewart, who designed the new sett, is the author of 'The Setts of the Scottish Tartans', the first comprehensive record of tartan patterns, published in 1950.
