Designed in the 1950s by Councillor John Hannay of the Hannah Clan Society. They are sometimes found with the light narrow stripe woven in white (see #1467), but this original had pale primrose.STS notes: In contemporary correspondence Mr Hannay said that the Galloway ‘everyday’ tartan was ‘in four shades of green with yellow and red stripe’. Cree Mills of Newton-Stewart, however, used only two shades in the manufacture on Mr Hannay’s behalf. MacGregor Hastie’s collection includes this sett with the pale yellow rendered in white and called Galloway Hunting.
