ASHFORD SCHOOL CADETS
Rawlins shows this badge: https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-us/a...5-a77800c5d4c4
But the motto is wrong as Esse Quam Videri is for the Ashford Girls school and the Ashford Grammar School (now Norton_Knatchbull_School) wore a white horse as a badge not an antelope. Can any one ID Ralwins badge? |

Alan,
There was an Ashford Grammar School in Middlesex (later Surrey) see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spelthorne_College Tim

I rules that one out as the school motto did not match either. The Esse Quam Videri does not seem to have an Ashford connection other than Rawlins has mistakenly linked it to a Girl school of that name by dint of the motto. Alan |

With Invicta, it must be Kent. A great place too Ashford, where i was born. Didn't go to that Grammar School though.

Queen's College, Queenstown, Eastern Cape, South Africa.
We are trying to track the badge shown here https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-us/a...5-a77800c5d4c4
Could it be Queen's College South Africa https://www.travelground.com/attractions/queens-college Tim (I have lived in Ashford, Kent for 30 years!)
