Default Rifle Cadet Corps - Liverpool College c.1860 info sought

Hi all,
I was wandering if anyone could help out or direct me to any information on the Rifle Cadet Corps c.1860 particulary to Liverpool College and what insignia would of been worn at that period up to 1901.
The only ref. I have is in the link.
Thanks in advance
Paul

Paul,

I have had this for so long I cannot remember where I originally got it from,

Hope it is of some interest:

Thats brilliant Peter, thankyou.
I note the design is similar to the later badge and what they still wear today,
I also see if one was to come across one without the extract you have you would be confused by thinking it could belong to either Collegiate or the Institute Schools.
