    Greetings from a British researcher....

    Hi All,

    I am born and bred in England, however with extensive family history Ireland (Ulster and Cork) and Scotland (MacLeod and some other unfinished research).

    I am looking to purchase a pair of trews to wear with my black tie and morning suit - both get very regular use.

    I found these trews for sale 2nd hand in my size, I believe them to be an Irish tartan perhaps?Click image for larger version.  Name: tartan.JPG  Views: 11  Size: 25.6 KB  ID: 22484

    Welcome to the group! Forgive me, but I cannot say off hand if the tartan is Irish or not.

    What a wonderful coincidence! Do any of the Irish regiments in the British Army wear this tartan then, are they likely ot be surplus?
