Default Patch identification

Unfortunately, I lost my SSD a couple of months ago, along with some un-backed up material. I think the notes on these patches were lost. Could the Forum membership identify these for me? Thanks.

Definitely South Lancashire Regiment, worn here by a soldier of its 9th Bn serving with the Orkney and Shetland Defences in 1942.
