Historical Significance

The County Roscommon Tartan is a captivating reflection of Irish history and cultural significance. Designed by Polly Wittering of the House of Edgar, this unique tartan pays homage to the traditions of County Roscommon in Connacht. Though not officially sanctioned, it was originally crafted for the Macnaughtons of Pitlochry as part of a distinguished trade collection, becoming a symbol of pride and identity. The town of Roscommon is steeped in history, with sites like Rathcroghan near Tulsk, believed to be the domain of Queen Medb, revealing archaeological treasures. The tartan encapsulates the region's enduring spirit and rich heritage, particularly significant since County Roscommon was established as an administrative division during the Tudor era.
