The Captain of Clan Chattan, Mackintosh of Torcastle, no longer lives in Zimbabwe. Mail directed to him at the Zimbabwe address given in another post will not be forwarded. If you have questions of Torcastle they are best asked of Mackintosh of Mackintosh.

Neither Torcastle nor Mackintosh recognises any restriction on the use of either of the Clan Chattan tartans arbitrarily registered by Lord Lyon in 1938. Both were formerly Mackintosh tartans and one, with a white over-check, was adopted by Farquharson of Finzean for a while in the 19C. The simpler version of this complex sett is the one generally woven and sometimes worn by members of Clan Chattan as an alternative to their own individual clan tartans.

I was contacted by a fellow here and sold a beautiful HEAVY wool Davidson kilt, unsure of the maker but it is truly awesome......All I know about it s it has a tag saying made in Scotland. From the research I have done I truly got it for a steal as well, many many great thanks to this kind gentleman for the amazingly fast shipping....Im still kinda awestruck. Now I just need to get a black belt and sporran....wow...
