Historical Context
The Brodie Hunting Tartan boasts a rich heritage, with potential roots tracing back to the Pictish people. The Brodie family emerged from Moray Shire, where Michael Brother held the barony granted by Richard I in 1311. This region has been the ancestral home of the Brodies since at least 1213, with Brodie Castle near Forres serving as the chief residence. A significant event in the family's history occurred in 1645 when Lord Lewis Gordon set fire to the old Brodie home, resulting in the loss of invaluable family charters and documents. This tartan symbolizes not only a family’s legacy but also the resilience and elegance of Scottish heritage.
