Scouting Yesteryear's Archive

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.

Scouting Fact

A Quick Scouting Archives fact for you :-

The gold cord Bushman’s thong was introduced in January 1952 as due to the war there was a shortage of leather. The gold thong was in use for about 4 years before HQ reverted back to the leather.
