The BYC?, did they have a three letter shoulder title? Not one that I know. So unfortunately we are running out of Scottish Yeomanry units. The others have very distinctive uniforms and headgear. On the front of the saddle is there a pouch badge? So an English unit or Volunteer mounted Rifle unit it maybe?

Hi Bryan,
No pouch badge I'm afraid, just buckles - photo attached of this detail.
Cheers,
