mtrpltpara Posted 1 January , 2006 Share Posted 1 January , 2006 Hi, can anyone identify this badge?, may not even be military, but something to do with Cardiff? Badge measures 30mm by 35mm. Thanks, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBettsMCDCM Posted 1 January , 2006 Share Posted 1 January , 2006 Looks to be Civic/Police/Fire? Could well be Cardiff as the Central Dragon/Standard device was used by the Cardiff Pals in a Collar Badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hill 60 Posted 2 January , 2006 Share Posted 2 January , 2006 Looks to be Civic/Police/Fire? It could be a Police badge, I don't think it is a Fire Brigade badge. FB badges are usually in two parts, the first is the Home Office star and attached to that is the Brigade crest. Does have a Cardiff ring to it though.

Rob B Posted 2 January , 2006 Share Posted 2 January , 2006 Could this be a council livery badge? Cheers, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
