Default Northumberland Fusiliers Cloth badge! Info Please!

Gentlemen,
where or on what form of dress was this badge worn? I suspect a WW1 period item, it measures 40 x 53mm, is printed/painted and hessian backed?

What is it and it's value please?

Thanks in advance!

Andy

652. c. 1915-1919. Soldiers. On khaki cloth a plain grenade and letters N.F. below all painted in white. A variets (652A) is embroidered in white worsted on khaki serge. Worn stitched on the upper sleeve of the khaki jacket or on the epaulette of greatcoat.
