  • Collection overview (Collection development policy)

    The Museum Collections contain:

    • Paintings and prints
    • Medals and decorations awarded to members of the Regiment
    • Uniforms and accoutrements of The Black Watch
    • Colours, pipe banners, flags associated with the Regiment
    • Trophies, weapons, silver and miscellaneous items
    • Archived material

    The collecting area for the Museum is not defined geographically. Material will be acquired on the basis of a proven connection with The Black Watch. The collections will therefore consist of items (including digital media) relating to The Black Watch Regiment (Regular, Territorial, affiliated, volunteer and militia) and Battalion (3SCOTS), and its history. This can include:

    • Items owned by, or used by, members of the Regiment/Battalion or their immediate families
      • and originating in the traditional recruiting areas for the Regiment
      • or originating in the areas where the Regiment/Battalion or members of the Regiment/Battalion have been stationed for peacetime training or operations
      • or originating from Theatres of War in which the Regiment/Battalion or members of the Regiment/Battalion have been present.
