The Museum of The Black Watch Following an enquiry from a colleague, we thought it might be interesting to feature three eighteenth century powderhorns as our latest Objects of the Month.

These three powder horns date from the eighteenth century. They were used during the North American campaigns by members of the Regiment.

The Museum of The Black Watch We've just updated our Object of the Month pages, featuring this nice wee print.
