Question-Kendel Green-Sir W.Scott
Readers;
I have picked up S.W.Scotts "Ivanhoe" for the 2nd time-the first in circa 1964. In the Light of All Things Kilt- what does the Readership make of the following sentence(page #14) "The Kendal Green though its date is more antient(ancient), ought surely to be as dear to our(Scottish)feelings as the variegated tartans of the North''.
Thus, 'what is Kendal Green'. should Lowlanders wear the Kendal Green kilt in leiu of the 'standard tartans' patterns, if your family is Lowland,rather than a 'universal sett'. Since tartans are at least 17th century, how far back does the Green thus go?
The thoughts of the Experienced are sought by;
Mr.C.Anthony
