Reading that it had come from a house clearance, I hope I may be able to shed some light on that. The group for a vast number of years were led by one of the amazing school teachers, a Miss Outram, who, sadly, I heard had passed away. I would therefore surmise that the shield would have potentially been with her and potentially her home was the mentioned house clearance. Sadly I don’t know for sure but do feel it is a real possibility as she was involved in the group and Girl Guiding for years. Mandy Carter By email
