About the Middleton Clan Tartan
The Scottish Register of Tartans records Middleton as a Clan/Family tartan. The Middleton sett is a handsome design of gold and green crossed with dark lines, a warm and dignified pattern of the north-east, worn in both ancient and modern shades.
The Middleton name is a territorial one, taken from the lands of Middleton in the Mearns of Kincardineshire, in the north-east of Scotland. With a history that rose to the Earldom of Middleton, the name is especially meaningful for family pride, north-east heritage and Scottish ancestry gifts.
Middleton Tartan Pattern and Colours
Middleton tartan is recognised for its warm gold and green character crossed with dark lines — dignified, earthy colours of the Mearns and the north-east coast. Ancient shades appear softer, while modern shades are deeper and more formal.
Middleton Heritage
The Middletons take their name from the lands of Middleton in the Mearns, the old name for Kincardineshire, on the north-east coast of Scotland. An old family of that country, they held their lands through the medieval centuries and shared in the affairs of the north-east, a land of hardy farming folk between the Grampian hills and the sea.
The family's greatest figure was John Middleton, a professional soldier who rose from the wars of the 17th century to be created the first Earl of Middleton, and served as the King's High Commissioner to the Scottish Parliament after the Restoration. From the Mearns the Middleton name spread across Scotland and, with the emigrations, to the wider world.
