Default L&BHY patch ???

Looks like an old L&BHY badge/patch, but not one that I know.
Anyone got a date ,etc, here ?
Cheers !

Hi Steve,
as far as I know the badge looks pretty much like the one of the Women’s Land Army.

Chers

Not Lothians I'm afraid. Phil's suggestion is probably spot on.

Thanks Guys !
I thought the colours on the back just might have 'leached' from a cammo uniform ?
Doubt the WLA wore these though, so possibly foreign ?? Civilian,even??
Cheers !
Steve

From checking WLA sites ,I does'nt look like they wore patches like this ??
45mmHx40mmW
Confusing, but interesting..............maybe ?
