About Us

Scots Corner evolved from an established family business in early 1998 as an attempt to provide information on and access to the activities of various locally based Scottish institutions - Caledonian Societies, Pipe Bands, Country & Highland Dancing, etc. However, it soon became apparent that, for the majority of our customers, background information on Scottish ancestry and heritage was the greater incentive in bringing them to us.

After a very few months, it was obvious that there was also a high demand for clan related items - crests, wall plaques, tartan goods etc - and Scottish/Celtic jewellery and giftware generally.

Our response has been to build up to the wide variety of goods, mostly sourced from Scotland, which you can find illustrated on the pages of our web-site.

Our combined experience and involvement with Caledonian Societies (Committee Member), Pipe Bands (Piper, Pipe Major), Clan Associations (Chief's Lieutenant for New Zealand) and traditional Scottish music covers nearly 80 years.
