Your Help ID'ing Pastor's Tartan, Please.

**PinellasPaul** · 18th January 22, 01:06 PM

Our assistant pastor asked if I would try to identify this tartan.

His name is Tompkins, but I looked at the Scottish Register of Tartans under Tompkins and saw nothing like this. He would appreciate your help very much. I would appreciate your help even more.

Thank you very much for considering my request. Sincerely yours,
Paul

Possibly Flower of Scotland

That looks very, very close. It could be the one.

Thank you very much! - Paul

My first guess was also Flower of Scotland, but upon closer inspection, I believe your tartan in question is Gunn in "ancient" colors; due to the red stripe pivoting in the green field and not the blue.

I believe that this is Barkley as the red is within the green band.

Agreed. Looks like Gunn ancient.

The Gunn Tartan SRT 1560 has distinct spaces between the black and the blue stripes.

I think you are exactly correct on the distinction, but I think the space is there, just barely visible in the OPs photo….which appears to be a version of Locharrons image of Gunn ancient.
