North Riding Badge (Red) |
Formally known as the 1st Vale of Pickering Scout Archives. The Scouting Yesterdays Archive holds many interesting Scouting bygones, 100's of Badges over 30 Uniforms and many many more interesting artifacts. The archive was set up in 2009 as a research project on Pickering Scouts but in 2015 went through a complete reform and update so here we are today as the Scouting Yesteryear's Archive. (privately Owned Archive) our aim is to educate people of the history of Scouting.

Archive Fact
A little fact I found out today about the North Riding Badge- it was originally red with writing and the rose but the red colour could not be obtained during the Second World War so it changed to maroon and returned to its original red colour in the early 1950s and when the county boundaries changed in the 1970s it changed from a ribbon badge to a woven bound North Yorkshire Badge we have today.
