Default British Badges - Unknown & Piper?

2 more mystery badges (to me at least) and an unusual Cameronians Badge, maybe piper? Do they look original?

Top left badge;Warwickshire Yeomanry. Top right badge;South Notthinghamshire (Yeomanry) Hussars. As for the Cameronians, it's for the Pipers, worn 1921-1968. I'm sure some British colleagues will be able to give you more specifics informations on these.
Cheers
Jo
