Hi and thanks Ivan,
No my reference collection doesn't extend to that one - would love a few pics of the badges etc, many thanks PM me and I will send email.
Hold that I have found a pdf of Raikes book online and have downloaded !
Thanks again Ivan - Raike's book shows a forage cap badge as per the pouch badge of the hunting horn with rose within and gives a date of 1853-1873 and the tunic button dates 1853-1875. Quite a bit of detail in the text to take in on uniform and accoutrements and note double berated tunic introduced around 1855.
Cheers Dean.
