Sean, it might have been for 7th Medium Regiment (3rd Transvaal Scottish) during the 1950s although they usually wore a diamond shaped Murray tartan patch. Perhaps it was the later reincarnation of the regiment.

Many thanks for that hadn't considered SA

Part of the Liverpool Scottish as artillery wore an RA collar badge on a piece of Forbes tartan on the TOS but not I think with the red backing to the collar and I dont think this is Forbes tartan.

P.B.

Don't think it's 7 Medium Regt Transvaal Scottish as their tartan has a Red Cross going through it, looks darker than Forbes tartan, maybe Government tartan. I will post better pictures when it arrives as it seems quite an attractive arrangement.

Could it be Royal Engineers / Officer related?

Could be but I thought there weren't enough flames for it to be RE

Only 7 flames as RE had 9.
