About the Stirling Clan Tartan
The Scottish Register of Tartans records Stirling as a Clan/Family tartan. The Stirling sett is a handsome design of blue and green crossed with black and lifted by fine lines, a cool and dignified pattern of central Scotland, worn in both ancient and modern shades.
Clan Stirling is a Lowland Scottish clan whose chief is Stirling of Cadder, Chief of the Name and Arms of Stirling. The crest is a hart's head rising from an antique coronet, and the motto Gang Forward makes Stirling tartan especially meaningful for family pride and Scottish ancestry gifts.
Stirling Tartan Pattern and Colours
Stirling tartan is recognised for its blue and green ground crossed with black and lifted by fine lines — cool, dignified colours of the Forth country. Ancient shades appear softer, while modern shades are deeper and more formal.
Stirling Heritage
The name comes from the burgh of Stirling, standing on its crag above the lowest crossing of the Forth — the very crossroads of Scotland. The family appear in a charter of David I about 1147, when Thoraldus held the lands of Cadder, and from that root grew the two great branches: the Stirlings of Cadder in Lanarkshire and Dunbartonshire, and the Stirlings of Keir in Perthshire, who bought those lands in the mid-fifteenth century.
Sir John de Strivelyn led his men against the English at Halidon Hill in 1333 and fell there; a later Sir John was Sheriff of Dunbartonshire, governor of Dumbarton Castle and Comptroller of the Royal Household to James I. George Stirling of Glorat fell at Pinkie in 1547, and the family were made Baronets of Nova Scotia in 1666. The Stirling lairds of Keir came out for the Stuarts in 1715, forfeiting their estates, which were later restored.
