The Lockhart clan is an ancient family from the Scottish Lowlands.

The Lockharts settled in Lanark and gained vast territories throughout the Lowlands, including Lanarkshire, Dumfriesshire, Edinburghshire, and Peeblesshire. Although the Lockharts are a lowland family, they are recognized by the Lord Lyon King of Arms as a clan, and the current clan chief is Angus Hew Lockhart of the Lee, Chief of the Name and Arms of Lockhart. The Lockharts were a powerful family and one of the most prominent families in lowland Scotland during the Middle Ages. The Lockhart family crest features a heart with a padlock, and the clan motto is "Corda Serrata Pando," which means "I open locked hearts"—a pun on the clan name. The Lockhart family brought home more than a new name from the Holy Land during the Crusades: they also gained a much-treasured and precious heirloom.
