    Cantles on sporran

    This picture shows that not a lot has changed in cantle design over the centuries - in fact sporran design itself has changed little since these days as can be seen from the following picture, interestingly, we argue that this design is for 'formal' occasions, these soldiers wore it into battle.
    This sporran can be seen in Brechin Town House Museum, it was owned and worn at Culloden by David Mitchell of Lethnot, a sergeant in the Jacobite Army - Although the Museum calls it the 'Rebel' Army, a term I would disagree with, however, I am sure others would disagree with me - after all, one mans War of Independence is another mans Revolution - am I not right my American Cousins?LoL...
