MACRAE HUNTING (WEATHERED) - Tartans beginning with 'P' The chiefship today is vacantKinloch Anderson attributes this pattern as 'Based on a piece of kilt believed to have been worn at Sheriffmuir. (13th November 1715) Olive green or Grey green. 'Old and Rare Scottish Tartan' was written by D. W. Stewart and published in 1893.'
