    The Abergeldie tartan is an interesting one in that it's another pattern taken from a rather poor quality representation that gives a general impression of the tartan. The colours and proportions are by no means clear and this is therefore but one possible interpretation.
    The portrait does still hang over the fireplace in the great hall at Abergeldie. Here is a link to a photo of it http://houseofgordonusa.org/images/r...abergeldie.jpg

    I've not been up that way recently and it hasn't been mentioned in the news but last I saw was a pretty substantial but temporary repair of the riverbank so I believe that the Castle is safe for the time being.

    The link was not working however I was able to fish around on the House of Gordon site and locate it.
    Unfortunately I can't relocate it.

    Here is another link that works.
