Hammersmith
& Fulham
 
This
is the most recent London Borough to adopt a Parks Constabulary, and has
gone for an unusual variation on the familiar bell shape. Also, the
colours used are a first (this is a poor scan, but the patch is maroon).
This unit boasts (in my opinion) one of the finest cap badges worn by any
U.K. Law enforcement agency. The chequered band worn on their caps is also
in different colours and coupled with the fine cap badge is somewhat
impressive!
The
new patch featured here is larger than depicted.
Haringey
Parks Constabulary
This is the latest patch
to appear from one of the new London Borough Parks Constabularies, which
is also now defunct.
Newham
Parks Constabulary
Note
the new patch on the right- the 'Neighbourhood Patrol' patch! This patch
is issued with a velcro backing, when the Officers leave the confines of
the Parks & open spaces that they patrol, they put this patch onto
their uniforms. Otherwise, they still use the normal Constabulary patch on
the left. This must be a world first!
Redbridge

Royal
Botanical Gardens Constabulary
This is the recent
offering from the Royal Botanical Gardens Constabulary, now re-named plain
old Kew Constabulary.

Southwark
Parks Constabulary
Wow!
Take a look at this rarest of the rare- the only existing patch known from
this now defunct agency. Southwark is a London Borough located to the
south of the capital, and covers areas such as Camberwell, Dulwich &
Peckham. My deepest appreciation is extended to John Davidson (ex Parks
Officer) for allowing me the chance to add this rarity to my collection!
