About this tartan

The MacLarens' traditional lands were the parish of Balquhidder in Perthshire. Their heraldry suggests descent from a cadet branch of the Earls of Strathearn, under whom, by clan tradition, they fought. An alternative tradition traces the chiefly house to Lorn, son of Fergus MacErc, who is believed to have ruled the ancient kingdom of Dal Riata
