Historical Context

The Borderland tartan has a rich history associated with the retainers of the House of Percy, one of England's prominent noble families. Its significance rose in 1760 when it was officially adopted as the tartan for the Duke of Northumberland's piper. This connection has solidified its status in Scottish heritage, particularly as the official plaid for pipers of the Northumberland Fusiliers. The tartan symbolizes loyalty and pride, often worn during ceremonial events and celebrations, showcasing a deep connection to Scottish culture and tradition.
