This sett is shown by Smibert (1850) and by W and A Smith (1850) but without the definition of 'Hunting'

URQUHART (WEATHERED) - Tartans beginning with 'G' The double black lines inScottish Tartan Society notes say it is interesting to note that much of the forged sixteenth century manuscript on which the Vestiarium Scoticum was based was supposedly transcribed by Sir Richard Urquhart in 1721. Although this is sometimes called Urquhart Old or Ancient Urquhart, both are misnomers since this is younger than the other Urquhart tartans featured here.
