Herefordshire Regiment Cap Badge

Description: This multi-part insignia showcases a striking, finely detailed white metal lion walking across a traditional heraldic wreath while grasping a vertical short sword in its right paw. The dynamic feline figure sits directly above a curved, single-piece brass scroll that spans the lower width of the design and features the county name cleanly stamped in all-capital block letters. Measuring approximately 45mm by 45mm, the structural body relies on dual-metal brazing to join the white metal elements seamlessly to the base metal, though this specific field-recovered piece has entirely lost its original vertical brass mounting slider from the reverse side
Circa: 1908–1947
Notes:
The badge represents the county regiment formed in 1908 from the Herefordshire Rifle Volunteers, later part of the Territorial Army. The lion motif derives from the heraldic arms of Herefordshire.
