Berwick Volunteers Ancient Tartan
Historical Significance
The Berwick Volunteers Ancient Tartan holds a significant place in Scottish history, linked to the Berwick Volunteers, a local militia established to defend Berwick-upon-Tweed. During the late 18th and early 19th centuries, with Britain facing external threats, various volunteer forces were raised across Scotland and England. Berwick-upon-Tweed, a border town with a turbulent past, required a robust defense force, and the Berwick Volunteers played a key role in protecting the region. The clan motto "Nunquam non paratus," meaning "Never unprepared," reflects the readiness and determination of this group. Their crest typically features an armored arm holding a sword, symbolizing strength and vigilance.
Color Scheme & Pattern
This Tartan features a blend of deep green, rich red, and earthy brown tones. The red in the tartan represents the bravery and sacrifice of the militia, while the green signifies the fertile landscapes of Berwick-upon-Tweed, often referred to as the "Gateway to Scotland." The brown serves as a nod to the town�s historic role as a defensive stronghold. The pattern itself is a traditional sett, with broad red bands intersecting the green and brown, giving it a balanced, yet bold appearance. It is made from 100% acrylic wool, ensuring durability and comfort.
