Alan, thanks.
My conclusion so far is that the Wessex Wyvern badge in gold anodised was worn for at least 34 years (1958-1992) by units of the Regular Army, Territorial Army, University OTC, Army Cadet Force and a civilian military style band which is still wearing it! Also seen worn by a security guard in Newbury!
However, so far, I seem to have the only one that is maker marked BEEWYSE LONDON
