[engr9266]

I brought the attached C.C.F. shoulder titles at Chatham today, Sun 13/11/22.
I have a "PIERREPONT C.C.F" title who I believe was/is a private school in Frensham, Surrey and the other is for "NORTHERN G.S. C.C.F. PORTSMOUTH.
Both are for sale. If interested please P/M me with a offer.

Found this :

Pierrepont School, Frensham, originally known as Pierrepont House School, was a private school in Surrey, England, with day pupils as well as boarders. Founded in 1947 as a school for boys, it became co-educational in 1983 and closed in 1993.

Pierrepont House School was founded in 1947 as an independent school for boys by its first headmaster, Thomas Joyce Parry. The following year Parry established a school Combined Cadet Force, with himself as its commanding officer, and became known in the school as 'Major Parry'. He had served in the British Army in both the 1st and 2nd World War.

The CCF, or 'Corps', became the heart of the school's ethos. In 1970 the original Army section was joined by a Royal Air Force section and in 1983 by a Royal Navy section.

I had hoped Pierrepont might have been associated tot he RAMC due to the color, but it's not on my list of associated schools.
