Biography
The Edinburgh Police Pipe Band
Effective period / Period of releases: 1958 - 1975
Members: Donald Shaw Ramsay
After local government reorganisation on 1975 the City of Edinburgh Police Pipe Band became known as the Lothian and Borders Police Pipe Band. On that date the police forces of the City of Edinburgh, Lothian and Peebles and Berwick, Roxburgh and Selkirk were amalgamated to form the Lothian & Borders Police. The City of Edinburgh Police Pipe Band was formed about 1890, originally wearing the "Red Ross" Tartan. Since 1948, however, the Band has worn the "Prince Charles Edward Stuart" tartan.
