The Story of Clan MacGregor | ScotlandShop On the Sofa

It is the last month of the year, which means it’s time for our final Clan of the Month episode of 2022, and for this very special episode we are talking about a Clan very close to the Scotlandshop team, Clan MacGregor. This is thought to be one of Scotland's oldest Clans, meaning there are a lot of stories to share, and plenty of enemies created. One of their most well known feuds was with the Colquhoun Clan, with it all beginning back in the 1300’s when the MacGregor lands were taken from them, meaning they became tenants of the Campbells and Colquhouns. Relations were stable for many years until 1592 when a member of the MacGregor Clan fired an arrow that ‘accidentally’ killed a member of Clan Colquhoun. This resulted in a full blown battle, but although this may sound like a disastrous story it is one that ends happily ever after with a Highland Reel. You will need to watch the episode to discover the full story! Of course we also delve into the Clan’s terrific tartans and famous faces.
