Many thanks for the information. I had forgotten about my post with the Christmas holidays a pleasant distraction but this info is very useful

I have inherited a small collection of militaria from my Grandad. He served in the Navy but many of the items are from the South Wales regiments. Amongst the items was a swagger stick/cane (about  26" in length)with a badge I have discovered belongs to the Cameronians. Is there anyway of dating the item from the design? .Some of the collection relates to the Boer war and I believe the Cameronians and Welshmen fought alongside one another. Is it possible that it dates back that far. I would be very interested to find out more.
